however I'm always getting those annoying security alerts from the built in anti-virus or whatever...
How can I get rid out of it?

Twrp is working. I only cant see any files if i press install. There are no files listed but must be normally. In S6 i cant format SD card. I also redownloaded

No.its a edge. Its new. Why i should format the sd card. I think thats not the problem. Should it be a problem that it is the 64GB Version and twrp cant read the sdcard because the size.

If i format sd card i get no problems becaus the folders are all formated like the folder android and all others which createt from apps. I ambafraid that my phone freezes

no, mine is 128gb and all OK.
i never saw this problem yet..maybe they changed partitions in newer bootloader..but don't think so..be sure to have your firmware as backup if something is wrong
