As the kcc developer, I have no idea why random antivirus flag kcc.exe. Especially after a new release and it hasn’t reached the critical mass of downloads yet.

You are also welcome to run the code directly using the earlier guide.

The exe is built directly on GitHub servers using the code publicly available. You can also rebuild the exe yourself on GitHub servers if you fork the repo and enable github actions.

Scanning will always give some false positives, you can inspect the kcc code yourself to verify there's nothing weird there.

Edit:

7.2.1 now out. Adds jpeg2000 support and fixes a pdf bug from 7.2.0
