Hello @scott28tt , sorry for posting this help request here but I did not know where else to put it in order to get some help from people who definitely know VMware products more than me... That being said, how could I contact someone from VMware in order to get some help to resolve this issue (or, hopefully, just a confirmation that Defender is seeing these files as a false positive)? Also, has anybody who has had my same issue found a solution? I tried to scan my system again with both Malwarebytes and Kaspesky and they did not find any thread, but you can never be too sure I guess... also @tjsk did you managed to find a solution to your problem? Thanks to anybody who will reply and try to help!

Hello, yesterday I downloaded and installed Workstation Pro from the official VMWare website and activated the free trial period. Today Windows Defender, while doing a full system scan, flagged as trojan some files that were in the VMware installation directory (InstallerCache, SetupBrowser and some .cab files, but also EFI32.ROM and 1e1d33.msi). I also have Malwarebytes installed and it didn't flagged any suspicious file. A subsequent scan with Microsoft Safety scanner also showed no infected files. Is it possible that those files were detected as false positives or should I start to worry about the safety of my system? (I can add photos with the full scan results if that can help)
