Summary0008948: MS defender marks several packages as malware
Description

MS defender marked several packages of the full installation ISO as hacking Tools/Trojaner etc. (primarly several matesploit helping tools, as far as I can see)
It would be nice to separate this packages to a different 2nd ISO, if is possible.
So that it is possible to download and use the ISO from a windows system without any problems, and add the problematic files afterwards.

That is known behavior and the FAQ suggests to set an exclusion for the file (or the folder with the file) in your anti virus software

IHMO you still need to solve this on your own vs. asking others to work around a problem originating from a 3rd party software.
