It seems Windows Defender flags the latest msi installer as a trojan, specifically Trojan:Win32/Sprisky.V!cl.
I assume this is a false positive similar to the earlier thread; could you register this as such with Microsoft?

I'm using Windows 10 64bit with all updates. Windows Defender Antivirus Definition 1.269.1192.0 (latest version)
I just manually scanned:
NCrunch_VS2017_3.17.0.2.msi
NCrunch_GridNodeServer_3.17.0.2.msi
But didn't find any virus/trojan. Maybe Microsoft has fixed it.
Windows Defender becomes more aggressive recently, it reported 2 installers from JetBrains as trojan too.

Thanks for sharing this. I've submitted this to MS as a false positive.
With malware spiraling out of control globally, scanners are getting more and more aggressive. Managing false positives is becoming more challenging all the time..
