What's new in WinPatrol V35.5.2017.8 (May 7, 2017)
- Fixed addition of Startup programs to be compatible with recent changes to Windows 10.
- Fixed removal of Startup programs to be compatible with recent changes to Windows 10.
- Disabled and removed checkbox for “Allow PLUS info data collection” because recent changes in allowed URL length resulting in no data being returned for customers.

Whether it is the "new" nature of this file, or due to the type of installer being invoked, several anti-malware programs are "attacking" the WinPatrol download. VirusTotal shows 10/61 objections:

Bret from WinPatrol maintains these are all false positives, that WinPatrol is safe to download and install.
Avast, AVG, Avira, BitDefender, Kaspersky, McAfee, MalwareBytes, Microsoft, Panda, TrendMicro, and Webroot all say it's SAFE.
