Re: Windows 10 reports stable 4.0.1 installer as malware.

 

If you use Edge you can submit the signature for review...which I've tried.

Yea we added my code signing certificate from Certum (Trusted CA)
because Windows was flagging the downloads initially under SmartScreen
but a purple message. After adding the code signing, it became a red
message. It literally is dumb. So much for code signing certificates.
I think it would be happier with a EV certificate but I don't have
one.

I also know Windows 10 got a lot more aggressive than Windows 8/7.

We could/should maybe just downgrade back to purple messages (less spooky!)
