I know, I know.

But I just wondered, why in the past I did not get virus messages, and since yesterday I do get.

Is that an update of the virus library of Windows? Attacking illegal content?
The same applied for variants of AutoKMS.

Someone who knows in more detail?

FastActivate and AutoKMS haven't changed...it is as you say, Microsoft have added to their virus library so these files are now showing as being similar to a virus

However, they are no viruses contained in these files so they are 'false positives'.

You need to either disable your AV as previously suggested or add them to the white list in your AV

Do you think that the AV alerts on basis of the name of the file or just on basis of some maligne structure they discover IN the file?

No, it's not the name of the file it reacts to...it reacts when it sees code within the file that is similar to a virus
