Rewrite sc64.py in compiled language to avoid detecting it as malicious software on Windows OS #34

Closed Polprzewodnikowy closed 1 year ago

Describe the bug As it turns out, using pyinstaller or Nuitka to generate executables results in terrible experience both on Windows and macOS. On Windows application is detected either as Trojan or Virus. On macOS performance and ease of use is hindered because of system protective measures.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Run sc64.exe on Windows OS
  2. Executable is detected as malicious software

Expected behavior sc64 executable shouldn't be detected as malicious software

Possible solution Rewrite application in compiled language like C, Rust or Go.
