TrueStretch 1.1.1 — fixes app not opening (Defender false positive)
TrueStretch 1.1.1 — fixes "nothing happens when I open it"
Download TrueStretch.exe — Windows 10 / 11. Your settings, accounts and backups are kept.
What was wrong
On some PCs, double-clicking TrueStretch 1.1.0 did nothing. Microsoft Defender's machine-learning check blocked it as Program:Win32/Contebrew.A!ml — a false positive (!ml means a model's guess, not a known threat; Program: is the "unwanted program" category, not malware).
The cause: TrueStretch is one .exe that unpacked its program into the Temp folder on every start and launched it from there. That pattern is what Defender's model flags.
What changed
- TrueStretch now unpacks once into its own folder,
%LOCALAPPDATA%\TrueStretch\<version>, and reuses it. Defender accepts this — tested with real double-click launches and Defender's own scanner, with no detections. - It starts faster, because nothing is unpacked again on later starts.
- Old versions' folders are removed automatically after an update.
If 1.1.0 is blocked on your PC
A blocked 1.1.0 can't start, so it can't update itself. Download 1.1.1 above and replace the old file. Optional: in Windows Security → Virus & threat protection → Protection history you can remove the old "Contebrew" entry.
Everything from 1.1.0 is included: Optimize Max, the new layout and the VALORANT-style design — see the 1.1.0 notes.
