Just what it said.
Possible, not HAS.
That message pops (defender) when any new version of software (that has not been vetted by M$ ) first comes out.
The big question: is WHERE you got the installer file, because the PageEdit has been out for a while? (dodgy sites redistribute, but add
extras 
).
Run a A/V scan on the installer file (Your A/V should have scanned if it was a Download, but sneaker netting will not) . That might find problems. The Installation process calls home (MS) to see what it
knows about the app. not, a malware scan.
