      BossiMode "why is it named that?" well do you know what that detection name means anyways?

      Yes it's a false positive it frequently happens on unsigned/"unknown" software like Plutonium after they update.

      For exemple qBittorrent is often detected as a malware when it's updated although it has been among the most trusted torrent clients in the torrenting community for a long time now and, iirc, is open source.
