Apple has forced me to shell out a hundred bucks a year in order to make useful
Apple installers for a while.
I finally broke down and figured out my way through the Windows signed
installer mess.
Oh so much fun. But I think I finally have it working, and now I need some help
from those of you with access to Windows systems (or VMs)
https://subsurface-divelog.org/downloads/subsurface-4.9.7.exe
<https://subsurface-divelog.org/downloads/subsurface-4.9.7.exe>
Yeah, same location as before, same filename / version number. Not exactly the
best way to do that, but it took quite a while to get the code signing
certificate purchased, installed, and working, and I didn't want to delay the
release any longer.
This app is signed with my "open source developer" certificate. And one of the
oddities in the way Microsoft handles this is that I can give a random
registrar hundreds of dollars per year and that in itself makes me "trust
worthy", or I can spend only about sixty dollars a year on one of these
certificates from Centrum, but then the app needs to build "reputation" before
the warning about it being from an untrusted source goes away.
So as a result, the more people download and (re-)install Subsurface 4.9.7, the
sooner this certificate will actually work as intended and make some of the
annoying / scary warnings go away - which have confused a number of our
not-so-tech-savvy users in the past.
So... your help is greatly appreciated. Oh, and please report back what Windows
tells you about this binary :-)
Thanks
