I've made a program to generate a random order of names and have converted it into a .exe file through Pyinstaller. It works fine but if I send it out, it will prompt the antivirus even though the file isn't harmful. I've tried looking for solutions in other places but they all require a form of payment, is there a free way I can go about doing this?

According to my knowledge,
The quickest and safest way is to buy a windows certificate, this would make the file read completely safe even when sending it to another computer.
Unfortunately, the 'free' options are either super complicated/uncertain/long, etc, and would only work locally.
