Tried to use your app today but my antimalware package (Norton Internet Security) detected it as malware and quarantined it. Multiple AV vendors are also detecting it as malware according to Virus Total. I don't know what, if anything, you can do about this.

I hope this helps.

David.

Hah, interesting. Thanks David. I suspect it's related to how it runs 7-Zip in a secondary desktop. I'll look into it! Thanks David

I couldn't find it on Virus Total and none of my AVs said anything about it.

Could you please provide a link if possible? Thanks

VirusTotal links for clonezilla-util.v2.4.0.win-x64.zip [here] and for clonezilla-util.exe [here]
Note: I just uploaded the files.

Note: the first screenshot from Norton Internet Security shows quarantining based on signature detection, I then disabled 'Auto Protect' and tried to run it again but then 'Behaviour Detection' quarantined it! I figured at this point perhaps I shouldn't be trying so hard to bypass my computer's defences!!
