Why do some trojans show up in virustotal but not in Kaspersky?

Hello, I installed an .exe file and Kaspersky said there was no problem, but when I scanned it with Virustotal from the internet, there were many viruses and this worried me because I trusted the Kaspersky scan and ran the .exe, why didn't Kaspersky warn me?

That file, it's even Trusted in KSN:

So it seems another typical multi false positive detection in VT.
