Code signing on Windows #1877

Closed srcejon closed 10 hours ago

srcejon commented 1 year ago

Download & install on Windows would be a great deal more user friendly, if the installer was signed (to bypass the maze of dialog boxes Windows throws up encouraging you not to run unsigned code).

Normally, this has a cost of several hundred $ a year for the certificates, but I came across signpath.io who appear to offer a free signing service & certificate for open-source software - and having tried a couple of apps signed with it, it appears to help (the installers run straight away).

It seems they need the build process to be verifiable - and currently support appveyor - with github actions in preview version.

Are you happy if I get in touch, to see if they will support us?

Hello @srcejon,

well if it does not make the CI more complex and difficult to maintain why not? ...

Brgds.

No, as was waiting for Github Actions support to be available. This has just been released so will take a look.
