I downloaded the portable version of GprahicsGale (a software popular among game developers for making graphics and animated sprites) from GraphicsGale - Download

However the VirusTotal scan shows that Malwarebyte has identified the zip file as MachineLearning/Anomalous.100%.

Now I don't really dare to use this application, but interestingly it is a very popular software used by many.

Is it possible for the Malwarebytes Team to do an analysis whether this is a false positive?

Thank you!

The engine format and configuration in VirusTotal is different than the consumer and corporate products’ default configuration. In VirusTotal Malwarebytes uses a command-line engine with different configuration and detection techniques/heuristics which might detect more than the commercial product. There are also false-positive suppression mechanisms in the commercial product which are not present in the command-line engine in VirusTotal.

This will eventually fix itself in Virustotal as well, as Malwarebytes has no control over this. Virus Total is having trouble reaching Malwarebytes cloud.
