Nim team is doing stuff to make this better: <https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/9358>

But it's really your anti-virus software that is at fault here...

As a person who has shipped a commercial windows app that was regularly hit by 
anti virus. There is almost nothing you can do except wait. Antivirus hits you 
when you .exe looks different from anything it saw before. Antivirus does come 
down after your .exe is shipped to thousands of computers and users 
unquarantine it manually many times. Signing the exe with windows keys or 
uploading your exe to special white lists does not work! We tried. It's just 
time and install base. Every update changes the exe and AV would flare up again.

Personal opinion: antivirus is basically a scam and worse than the protection 
they offer. They live off unsuspecting users selling them upsells and snake 
oil. They leach off large enterprises. They have too many false positives and 
don't really stop viruses.

They will sell your browsing data, replace ads you see with their own ads, and 
mine Bitcoin. They will even also replace root certificates on user machines 
and expose them to man-in-the-middle and spoofing attacks undermining all 
security. Run a way!
