Have you tried code-signing with an EV certificate? If so, did it help? Asking for a friend.

Statistically notable improvement, but it didn't help a whole lot.
I always upload a copy to https://www.virustotal.com to help combat the false positives.

It was really bad a couple years ago because anything wrapped in Inno Setup kept being flagged. Now maybe one or two flag vendors do; Bkav Pro and CrowdStrike Falcon are the dominate culprits always.

Uploading to virustotal doesn't really do anything to combat false positives AFAICT. It only lets you test against many AV vendors at once.
