Windows Code Signing Certificate
-
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 I’ve only ever had one user complain about not having a certificate. I don’t think most devs do. Avoid

@DanH thanks I will leave it out and see how many users complain

No one will :) 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.
