I had a look at the current version of the Epic Games Launcher and recognized that the version number in the application does not match the version number in the EXE file:

@Tom In my original posting I uploaded the app-icon in ICO-format.
So here is the app-icon in PNG-format:

I recognized that the verrsion numbers in the EXE and in the application are now identical:

@Tom Are you going to add this?
Maybe you use the Product Version String and truncate the the text beginning with +++.
So you show the version number 10.18.7-14280373

@OLLI_S This should have been added, please confirm that it is detected correctly

[OLLI_S]

Epic Games Launcher is now detected by VulnDetect and the version number 10.18.9.0 is also correct.
Thank you for adding this!
