Responsively-app: Threat identified on Windows 10

[Darkensses]

I downloaded the release ResponsivelyApp-Setup-0.1.4.exe and when I executed the app, Windows Defender triggered an action. I'm sure that your project is not a 'malware' or something like that, but I think is important make a patch for this issue.

@Darkensses Is it possible for you to attach a screenshot after changing the language to english?

I also just downloaded the latest release and tried to install it. Windows 10 (1909) Security detects it as a threat.

@manojVivek please see the attached file from @LOHT03 comment. Thanks for the screenshot LOHT03 🙏

Virus detected also downloading with Chrome

Also Happened to me today when using chrome on windows 10

Trojan:Win32/Fuery.C!cl

Downloaded the windows 10 latest release

I was going to post about how Trojan:Win32/Fuery.C!cl was detected with Windows Defender in ResponsivelyApp-Setup-0.1.4.exe, but looking at https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/56599bcdd55ef9229083d438fde9978f320a0db755f9a70b04dc3d4b4eb80495/detection, it seems to be clean.

Same issue, please refer to the attached image(but with Chinese UI).

This looks a false positive reported for electron apps built with a specific version of electron-builder. We will be upgrading the version in the next release, that should fix it.

If anyone else just wants to try this out like me. 0.1.3 seems to download and run just fine. Thanks for the app guys this is 🔥

Yes, Windows Defender does not report anything for ResponsivelyApp-Setup-0.1.3.exe. Same with https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/c01cd26b15511c49858a3965f5c6c3b805cf03c19740ab815f63bff5c4517f2c/detection.

Same here when downloading from the below link; Chrome detected a virus.

With Firefox in windows also detected as a virus

[manojVivek]

@Darkensses A possible fix went in with v0.1.5. Can you check if it works for you?

[kdawg1406]

@manojVivek I'm seeing this warning, but if I dismiss, it downloads.

[kdawg1406]

@manojVivek Windows is not happy now. Can't install.

[kdawg1406]

@manojVivek bizarre, after downloading again, Windows allowed the installer to run. The program runs fine now. Best to you, Karl

[manojVivek]

@kdawg1406 This warning is because the app is not signed with a certificate. But you can proceed after clicking on "More info". This is not related to the thread reported in this issue.

Signing a Windows app needs purchasing of certificates from certificate providers and since that is not affordable at the current moment, we haven't done that. 🙂

[DanWahlin]

Thanks for the quick update @manojVivek! Such a cool app concept.

I'd be happy to contribute towards a certificate if you can set something up. I suspect others would as well. Feel free to DM me on twitter (@danwahlin) or provide any info on contributing here.

[kdawg1406]

@manojVivek this is the best app! WOW, great idea, and programming. Thank you!

New version worked in windows. No more problems with windows defender when try to download.

[Darkensses]

Hey @manojVivek after reading all the above comments, I confirmed that windows doesn't recognize it as a threat. I can execute the app with no problems.

I close the issue. Thanks y'all for the support and comments 🥰

I think you need to put all this info in the README, just a sugerence ✌

[jsiesquen]

Is a false positive also? what happen friends?

[Darkensses]

@jsiesquen please describe the steps to get this warning window and tell us what antivirus are you using.
Also, see the comments above, it's probably a false-positive
