Hello, The latest version HeidiSQL_12.11.0.7065 is not digitaly signed and MS Defender is blocking it. Is it possible to add a certificate? The version 12.10.0.7000 is not being blocked.

The installer is signed, so the one who downloads it can verify its integrity. The main executable is no longer signed, besides the nightly builds. Thanks to the code signing authorities which require a hardware USB token for signing since some time. Means I have to manually do the signing process now, as I cannot connect that USB token to my remote server.

Please note the current and upcoming builds will all be signed again.

Along with a move of the website from HostEurope/GaDaddy to the german hoster Manitu, I rewrote the process for nightly builds, for use on local machine. Users with the Git sources can even now build via command line themselves. However, code signing is done on my personal machine only.
