Hi
I just purchased a license of Lasso and run an update through a newly purchased Glasswire license and was surprised to see that one of Virus Total's search results flagged this in there results;
Win.mxresicn.heur.gen
* See images
Can someone please explain why this would be so?
Thank you

No, that is a false positive. It is a heuristic detection, not an exact match, so is prone to such. There is often at least one of the 70+ security suites that will give one.

Use other reputable antivirus programs to scan your system and the flagged file(s) for further assurance.
Tools like Malwarebytes, Bitdefender, and Kaspersky can provide additional insights.
