That's a common issue that persists every time a new app version is released. I constantly submit the executable to Microsoft. Usually, it takes 24 hours to 48 hours for Microsoft to remove the detection.

Meanwhile, you can follow this procedure.

The app adds entries to the registry and task scheduler to run the app on startup. Windows doesn't "like" apps with admin privileges running on startup. I get that, but this is the way to do it. I apologize, but the app can not deep clean the memory without admin privileges.

It helps if more users submit the app to Microsoft analysis.
