The Witcher 3 Crash Reporter Virus False or Legit?

[DaenerysStorm50]

My the witcher 3 crashed for some reason and sudenly Defender picked up some steam and blocked it as a threat. Mbytes is saying it is clean

It is a legit copy of the game.  I deleted he file and validated the game files and redownloaded file returns the exact same detection

Have you unzipped the file?

 

Interesting. I can't even download the zip file I have uploaded here. Defender immedaitly stops it and detects it

 

 

Is my Defender compromised? how can I be sure?

Of course.

The VT detection "may" be off or a FP. Be sure to be sure to update defender.
