B4J Question B4J Packaged apps (Windows 10) contain Malware?

[yo3ggx]

Hello,

I've developed a B4J application that is distributed as both JAR file and a Windows Packaged (portable) application.
After some user reports, I've tested the executable at https://www.virustotal.com/

This is the result.

Is this something to be expected?
How can I prevent this?

B4J packages apps do not contain anything other than: your code + libraries + Java runtime.

Protection software are always suspicious when they encounter a new executable. Especially when it is unsigned. Signing it with a software certificate will help.

If I remove the two executable (from build folder and from bin subfolder), the app work as expected with run_debug.bat and no issues reported.
I will stay with the bat file for the moment, as I cannot afford for the moment to get a code signing certificate to be used in Windows.
