   Here is an infosec question.

   @neauoire has posted on Itch a small executable they built with PellesC compiler. Windows 10 is false-positive flagging both it, and its 64-bit variant, as "Watatac.H!ml" malware.

   What can be done about this, from Devine's perspective? Is there a way to submit a file to Microsoft for marking as false-positive malware? Searching Google I find only answers specific to the Office365 vulnerability scanner and this is basic Windows 10.
