This is a common issue with non-profit apps as a code signing certificate isn't provided. It costs money and independent developers are hurt by it. A quick Google led me to this interesting article on the topic: https://getimageview.net/2020/06/02/microsoft-defender-smartscreen-is-hurting-independent-developers/

I don't know what can be done here :(((((

Oh I get it. It is like a tax, for windows applications. No problem. 😄👍

You can also try creating your own certificate, and the user can install it...?

(As long as it does not cost money)

I think there is a way to get this license for free. I'll try to figure it out.

Hi,
Why you need this?
Just use the app if you like it.

I was just asking if anything can be done, no problem if not possible.

You said you think there was a way to get a free license. I was asking about that, if you were able to find anything.
