Windows warns about an unknown publisher

The file has no paid signature. Allow it to run if you downloaded it from the official site.
3

The antivirus deleted the file or calls it a trojan

This is a false positive.
  1. Download the file again:
  2. Compare its SHA-256 with the one on the site.
  3. They match: add the file to the antivirus exclusions. Windows Defender: Windows Security -> Virus & threat protection -> Manage settings -> Exclusions.
Do not turn the antivirus off completely. An exclusion for one file is enough.
This is Smart App Control. Do not turn it off: it can only be turned back on by reinstalling Windows. Ask in the help channel on Discord.
The files are not signed with a paid certificate, so Windows does not know the publisher. The code is on GitHub and GitHub Actions builds the release files.
Usually an antivirus web shield or a corporate proxy. What to do
