As of today, Windows Defender is flagging qBittorrent as a PUA as seen in the screenshot below.
The "Actions" drop-down only shows "Remove" and "Quarantine" as options. To get it to run, I had to uninstall the application, download the installer, scan the installer with Windows Defender, and specifically allow the application to run on my device.
