Hi,
I downloaded the updater on 01/02/2022 from your website.
When I tried to launch it, my antivirus said it was a trojan.
I ignored it today, and when I launched it again, it made a new .exe called "updater_new" that I didn't have control of, and couldn't get permission for, despite being an administrator.
Then, my antivirus scanned it, and it was a trojan.

What's going on guys?

Bit Defender has been flagging that file as a false positive lately. The file is only temporarly created during the update process, hence why you won't be able to set permissions for it.
