ESET flagging and deleting Ubisoft Game Riders Republic (again)

[Gunzta 0]

Hi.

ESET is flagging and deleting a UbiSoft game executable again. I've highlighted this issue before (link below) . Apparently the exe for Riders Republic has been updated and is now being falsely detected again.

@Marcos jumped on this for me before and it was resolved very quickly.
