I was installing Octave 4.2.0 on my Windows 10 PC. Windows Defender

It should be yet another false positive.
You could verify if the installer you downloaded has not been
compromised by checking its signature. I just tested here and
octave-4.2.0-w64-installer.exe
matches
octave-4.2.0-w64-installer.exe.sig
as expected.
The official place to get installers from is
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/octave/
and there you can also find the signatures. Some Googling will point you
to a way to test the downloaded files.
