" My antivirus (Avast antivirus) said that its harmful for my computer. This particular file is the only one where it had problems. Other files are doing just fine and is successfully installed in my computer.

It's probably a false positive (avast as well as other antivirus are known for that). A lot of a/v detect the keygens or hack tools and presented them as PUA (potentially wanted app) or heuristic xxx or something similar using a generic name. The post has a Virus total which is the sum of 70 different AVs not detecting anything on the installer. You can check it

and at the top of the post, you linked.

Sadly you don't give us more info and/or a screenshot so I can only offer a generic answer. If you like, share a screenshot or more info and details (like what is the name of the virus detected if any, which file(s), etc) and we can help you understand more.

Create a thread to query for a false positive ?? I do not understand why this thread was not immediately closed
advising the author to ask the question in the thread that downloaded the software.

I proceed to close it, if any of the admins who saw it want to open it, they will.
