New signing issue with 0.9.0 Windows binary? #33

I read that as of 0.7.0 Windows builds are now fully code signed

I just tried to install ShowMIDI-Windows-0.9.0.exe (5,099,792 bytes) signed by Open Source Developer, Geert Bevin and it gives this error:

"Windows protected your PC - Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk. "

Is this a regression in the signing, or is there another issue with 0.9.0?

This was the binary not having sufficient 'reputation' with Microsoft yet. I contacted Microsoft. It has now established the necessary reputation and when updating the SmartScreen definitions and re-downloading the binary, the warning doesn't appear anymore.
