Description of the Issue

I'm not sure this is specifically a Notepad++ issue or whether it's an issue with Trellix's definitions, but it's blocking the download of Notepad++ due to detecting "Artemis!26B9167CC026" trojan. Version 8.8.1 was unaffected by this issue.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Attempt to download Notepad++ 8.8.2
  2. File is blocked and deleted by Trellix Endpoint Security

Current Behavior

Cannot download the latest release of the software

Expected Behavior

Should be able to download the latest release of the software

Debug Information

N/A

Anything else?

Microsoft Defender detects no issues, but unfortunately my corporate IT uses Trellix.
