I submitted the latest downloadable version of Treesheets to Virustotal. It seems ok except for the Baidu engine, which detects:
Win32.Trojan.WisdomEyes.16070401.9500.9949

It's most likely a false alert, but it would be nice to figure out what triggers it (and/or maybe submit Treesheets to Baidu for analysis)

Regards

A lot of virus checkers nowadays scale their estimation of how likely an executable matches a virus by how often they've seen an executable, which increases false positives for niche applications like TreeSheets.
It is impossible to know what triggers these.
