The file is a PUP/ PUA and detection will stay.

Many antimalware vendors follow the guidelines provided by AppEsteem (https://customer.appesteem.com/deceptors) to detect a software as PUP/ PUA and so does bitdefender.

If you want to use the software, follow the below steps

1) Temporarily disable Bitdefender Protection: https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/28557/

2) Set exclusion in Bitdefender Antivirus: https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/13427/

3) Set exclusion in Bitdefender Advanced Threat Defense: https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/2393/

4) Re-enable real time protection in Bitdefender.
