Seems strange that the dev seems to be keeping quiet on this, no? I’m not telling you to read every comment of every post, you can just skim the post titles. Then you’ll see multiple open issues and a few closed issues too going back 5 days to the latest BtS update.
Though I haven’t followed this project long enough to tell if this is just the way they normally behave.
Edit:
I’m back at my computer, so it’s easier to edit and add info now.
Some key points that have stuck out to me:
-
Previous version released in July only triggers 2 detections on Windows defender versus 29 for the most recent version: https://i.imgur.com/GIoH7eG.png

Users getting constantly pestered to update to the latest version: https://i.imgur.com/Oege3kU.png

Yeah, naturally, the dev is going to say it’s a false positive. Obviously. I’ve only mentioned that the dev has previously responded because some people barely skimmed through the issues and thought the dev simply hadn’t seen the latest open issue from only a few hours ago, when that is not the case.
Looks like the previous version only had two positive hits on VirusTotal, according to comments, whereas this newest version has 29.
Some said the previous version is still available. I don’t really have skin in the game, so nobody should take my advice without doing your due diligence.
