Hey @Jimmy_O
We scan every new version of every application through Virus Total and publish the scan results in our catalogue and website release notes.
You can see the scan results for version 3.66.5 x64 here - https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/b5dc1c1a5d7112d19f225d14b0ba7e704994d619e6b2767be341cbeca885d933
There are 2 versions of FileZilla available, one sponsored and one not. We use the unsponsored one, which is clear and no longer being flagged by Microsoft (Based on reports from another customer who flagged this issue yesterday).
You are safe to deploy FileZilla from Patch My PC
I know it´s safe but was just curious about why Defender Antivirus reported this as a PUA with serious severity.
Also this from security.microsoft.com
Hey
Sure, I can't really comment on why Microsoft have flagged it, it's not information that we have access to.
