| | Signed Exe is being blocked by Vista I have a digitally signed program that is being blocked when run on a particular Vista Home Premium machine. The same program runs fine on other machines, it's just this one machine. Each time the user tries to run the program they get the "Open File - Security Warning" message dialog. The Publisher is listed (so it's not unknown). The problem us that because Vista is seeing the program as "bad", it runs in a lower priv level than is needed to run the program (i.e. access to reg keys and profile information) and the program does not work, How do I get this program off the "bad list", or get the Publisher back on the trusted list? |

| | Re: Signed Exe is being blocked by Vista I thought I would update on this issue. Our application has been updated to include a proper UAC manifest (asInvoker) for Vista, as well as the digital signature, which it already had. These changes did not fix the Open File - Security Warning prompt that our client gets when trying to run the application. We renamed the folder the application is installed in, as well as the application itself and still the warning appears. We had the client turn of UAC and the prompt still appeared. We also had the client export his registry as text. In his registry we found a VirtualStore key under HKEY_USERS\<user id>\Clasees\Software \Machine\VirtualStore\<company>\<product>. Deleting this key made no difference, |
