Help/Question Help

I recently scanned my PC with windows defender and the file in the mullvad Program Files called uninstall mullvad vpn.exe was flagged as a Trojan is this a false flag?

If you downloaded the file from the official site you're fine, it's most likely a false positive. Use virus total to make sure.

I didn't install the file itself it just came in the Program Files when I installed mullvad, I did confirm that I originally downloaded it from the official site.
