      I know that I need to Sign my Application by a trusted authority in order for Windows to not complain about it. I was wondering what the majority of HISE users are using for this? Especially given the options of so many available certificates I am really unsure which one I should go for?

      Thanks in advance!

        The majority of us aren't bothering to do it. It seems like a scam from I've read.

          @d-healey i have exactly the same feeling about this. I've found some sites that offer the cert cheaper than the usual 500$ a year however all of these signing sites give off a weird vibe.

            @oskarsh Iโ€™ve only ever had one user complain about not having a certificate. I donโ€™t think most devs do. Avoid

                No one will ๐Ÿ™‚ Just put how to handle that "Windows Defender Blue Screen Warning" during the installation to the product manual, then you're good to go.

                  @oskarsh even if you want cert like this you need be company and get a lot government papers, so if you are sole proprietor you can't sign your code.
