GIMP 299.10 virus alert during installation
#3
Very occasionally the developers get a report like yours. example: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues/6941 and they will say, run the file(s) through VirusTotal which scans using multiple virus engines.

This using the latest gimp-2.99.10-setup-2.exe installer
Using linux to extract the files, so no possibility of a Windows Malware compromise.
There are two sets in a 64 bit Windows installation, both 64 and 32 bit
Nothing shows here. A couple of screenshots 64bit https://i.imgur.com/KirXJ0z.jpg and 32 bit https://i.imgur.com/9Wgb4eI.jpg

Most probably a false positive or it could be something already on your computer.
Try running the 32 bit files yourself through VirusTotal https://www.virustotal.com/gui/home/upload
