If it's only a very few positives you could just mention them. Other than that we can make a scan ourselves. But some positives are usually not a serious hint to malware.
But of course - if it is triggering your AV, you may want to "exclude" a certain folder from which to install and archive these downloads. You might also turn off your AV while installing, because AV might be triggered as you try to install. If you trust the source (like sister site), configuring your downloader program to save to a folder that will not be scanned by your AV is fine. I actually exclude all my drives except my OS drive from my AV (standard Windows Defender). On my OS drive I also exclude the Windows Defender folder (possible problem with Defender scanning its own folder) and my DAW programs folders, etc. But i always allow my main USER folder to be scanned (C:\Users\*username*\). I DO want normal internet stuff and temp files , appdata, etc, to be scanned for sure. I might click a bad thing and don't want trouble- hahah. I think I also have excluded my "Documents" folder from being scanned.. Anyway, for most users it's NOT a good idea to just turn off your AV permanently or exclude your OS's download folders etc. from being scanned by AV. Anyone who wants to argue that it IS good to just disable all AV .. is not "most users", and will do whatever they want!
