On (up-to-date) Windows10-64 machine, I just downloaded and installed (for first time) STM32CubeIDE.
(Up to date Norton) reports the following "High Threat". Details below.
The last reference I can find by googling this error goes back to 2020, and was apparently fixed.
Before I click the "make exception" option (or just delete the installer), I want to make sure a true virus hasn't somehow snuck into the current release.
