Unfortunately, false positives are common among newly released 7+ Taskbar Tweaker versions. It's not specific to v5.11.2, virtually every version has this issue. Usually, antivirus vendors remove the false detection a couple of days after it's being reported to them.

This problem is mentioned in the FAQ, and was discussed dozens of times in the blog comments, for example:

And many others. Searching for "False positive" yields more than 170 comments on my blog.

There's also the blog post of Nir Sofer, Antivirus companies cause a big headache to small developers, which has a great description of the problem.

Avira Antivirus reports TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen2 in v5.11.2

I can't risk getting a crypto trojan onto my system. 

Please remove this issue. Thank you! 

I understand your claim about the false positive but I'll have to rely on Avira's advice here.
