#279 Doesn't work in Win 11 unless Smartapp turned off
I am using Sci 5.2 in Windows 11.
I am reporting an issue on Windows 11 where the application is completely blocked from launching by Smart App Control (SAC). The app only runs if Smart App Control is completely turned off at the OS level.
Because Smart App Control does not allow users to manually whitelist individual applications, any unsigned executable with a low cloud-reputation score is automatically blocked.
Could you look into adding cryptographic code signing to the Windows build pipeline for future releases? Signing the scid.exe binary and the installer with a valid digital certificate will satisfy Windows Smart App Control and prevent these false-positive blocks for Windows 11 users.
If funding for a certificate is an issue, programs like SignPath.org offer free code signing for open-source projects.
Thanks f
