Did you check it with VirusTotal just in case? Often times it triggers false flag to think that’s it’s a virus, and if you can, can you send us the link of where you got it from?

And the record seems clean as well - VirusTotal report

Do you have any piracy-related software in your computer that detects the repository as a virus? Because the forums explains it

I didnt have access to the zip file since windows defender detected the virus, but David_AnkiDroid on reddit did a VirusTotal test and it says its clean.
I have just Defender.
