## Important Security Information
Some antivirus programs may flag this application as a false positive - a common occurrence with Python applications compiled into executables. The application is completely safe to use.
For additional peace of mind, you can review the source code or compile it yourself using this Nuitka command:
```
python -m nuitka --standalone --enable-plugin=pyside6 --windows-icon-from-ico=icons/launcher.ico --include-data-dir=icons=icons --follow-imports --lto=yes --windows-console-mode=disable --msvc=latest --output-filename=launcher main_launcher.py
```
These false positives occur due to how antivirus software evaluates executable packers like Nuitka, not because of any actual security risk.
