      Folks,

      What about making the app a javascript implement in browsers ?

      Would this prevent the windows defender from marking this as a possible threat ? I know that when the "Zepilot" was the "boss" had a virus in the FAForever app,

      Now windows defender still wont allow it to be installed, could you folks program it to be browser based ?

      Greets.

        Ignoring the "FAF had malware when ZePilot was in charge" bit...

        This is an enormous amount of work to solve a tiny issue. If we really wanted to we could shell out for a windows signature, and we don't even consider that worth the time or money.

          You cannot make a web-based app copy around and modifying files on the file system. You can also not start other processes on that PC. Both is required to run Forged Alliance.
