      After update to latest version v7.5.6 (32bit) Avast antivirus detected uninstall.exe as Malware(Win32:Malware-gen).
      Is it just false positive or am I pwned?
      I uploaded this file to virustotal which did not detect anything but I suppose that avast on VT maybe had older signature DB or something…

      Link to VT: https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/4040b888d4a9a7dcd276839a10deccdd6b56e7e744a1fec25c248f2e4aa7947d/detection
      At the time of sending it has 0/64 detection ratio.
