There are many (19/41) in the VT results that consider this at the very least suspicious. Many hacks/cracks are the subject of malware.
Why it hasn't happened before isn't unusual as new signatures and modifications to generic signatures are likely to detect new or previously undetected malware.
Read the first reply O made on this topic on how to exclude it from scans, though this isn't something I would recommend in this case with so many detections in the VT results, but the choice and risk of doing so have to be yours.
The file should be sent to avast for further analysis:
Send the sample to avast as a possible False Positive:
Open the chest and right click on the file and select 'Submit to virus lab...' complete the form and submit, the file will be uploaded during the next update.
Periodically check it (scan it in the chest), there should still be a copy in the chest even though you restored it to the original location. When it is no longer detected then you can also remove it from the File System Shield and avast Settings, exclusions lists.
