We are about to distribute a Windows client from our web site, for potential users to test our upcoming solution. The code signed application still triggers Windows Smart Defender into displaying a scary warning.<p>I am trying to find a way to get rid of this. I have been trying to solve this problem for a couple of weeks. I can't believe we are the first one to face that.<p>Details:<p><pre><code> * app is built (using Unity) as a standard Windows exe.
* it's a demo so publishing to the store might not be suitable.
* we have deployed apps on the Windows Store before but I am not sure how that can help our reputation
* more details: I posted on Unity forums as well:

Here are the ideas I am looking at right now:<p><pre><code> * Getting it to work as is
* Windows Logo submission after passing the WACK / Windows 10 test. Can it?
* special trick / help by MS?
* getting all my friends to install it in hope that it helps
* asking help around?
* convert app to Windows 10
* use a wrapper
* make a unity UWP version
* Abandon Windows, make a WebGL version
* Ignore it, and see how it goes...
</code></pre>
Any tip?
