How do we report or fix this?

Assuming that you are 100% sure that there is no problem with your setup, contact the publisher of the product which is flagging your installer incorrectly to have it white listed. You are digitally signing the installer, aren't you?

It's windows Defender. Clearing history seems to solve the issue. Will digitally signing the installer fix the issue too? I will check to see if I am.

It is possible that the virus definitions database was already corrected at this point. Signing may not eliminate a false positive, but it will help the vendor with the white listing if necessary.

It happens to me too, but i just ignore it and i advertise about that to my users.

Also it happens to me on AutoPlay Media Studio too, so it would prob be a glitch from the program that makes Windows Defender to detect it as a false positive.
