Anybody know of a good guide on how to use virus Total ? Like in terms of how to detect a false positive from a real one. Thanks.

    You cannot tell a false positive from a real positive. It’s a gamble. You need to check for every AV what’s the results and do your own risk assessment. Do I really need this software given that XX Antivirus consider it to be a virus? New threats will have a low number of AV that will detect it.
