Just ran InstallGoldWave654.exe (on Windows Professional 64-bit with latest updates applied).
Windows Defender immediately alerted me: "Threat found .... Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.D4!ml ... in GWVSTBridge32.exe
This program is dangerous and executes commands from an attacker"
I've run Goldwave since the 1990s and never hit this type of issue upgrading it before.
I can't find Goldwave's email ID for alerting of possible viruses. Any suggestions how I get this message to their developers?

Per GoldWave Support:
"That is a false positive. You can scan the download at virustotal.com for better analysis. Please be sure to get the latest updates for Windows Defender."
