uninstall.exe is malware

[qua]

I ran uninstall.exe from the STM32CubeIDE installation folder through VirusTotal. Results here: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/e965ce62fe16c51edc4e186fb6cc84c3f9f98dacfd61d3ba0e8b2154a73bfb8c

Some scanners detect it as malware. I originally installed V1.12.0, but recently upgraded to V1.13.0. The uninstall.exe file does not seem to have changed since the original installation.

virustotal was a good site about 15 years ago, it's pretty irrelevant today, as are most virus scanners. False positives drive up their business with little to no downside.

Sophos and Kaspersky are reputable anti-virus companies, and the Kaspersky stand-alone scanner picks it up too. ClamWim also flagged it.

Ok, but are you a malware expert, have you analyzed it yourself? What's it doing? Erasing files, modifying / deleting registry content, oh wait..

When I built Windows tools, things I built flagged too, generally anything I hardened against modification, tampering or inspection, especially with compression or crypto, that had low entropy.

I think you're missing the point. A number of virus applications mark this uninstaller as a trojan. One doesn't have to be an expert to know this and to be wary of an uninstaller from ST.
