setup/installer
Description
When Brave attempts to update it runs an exe called setup.exe. This program is generically named and flagged by Windows Ransomware protection. It simply sees it as Setup.exe with no further information. Searching for the file and seeing it has the same time stamp as the alert finally made me realize it was Brave trying to update, though I had it blocked via Ransomware protection.
Steps to Reproduce
Expected result:
To show BraveSetup.exe or something to say its not some generic virus trying to be installed. I blocked if for 4 months till I finally decided to check it out.
