Windows "Smart app control" blocks Mecway

Sebastianmaklary

Hey

My work computer has blocked Mecway from running with the so-called "Smart App Control".
I'm not allowed to disable safety features generally, as everything seems to be hacked these days.

Is it possible to somehow add a digital signature to Mecway that makes it recognized as a trusted software?
I hope that a solution can be found quite quickly as I cannot use the software at all.

Best regards,
Sebastian

I may have found a workaround in the "AI answer" on this page: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-nz/answers/questions/5765803/unblock-a-file-smart-app-blocked

After running the command Unblock-File -Path "C:\Program Files\Mecway\mecway.exe" in Windows Powershell and restarting the computer, it now opens.

Here are signed copies of three of Mecway 34's dlls which I think will satisfy Smart App Control. Replace the same-named files in the installation directory with them.

Thanks!
Currently it works and I can open Mecway. I do not know if it is because of the Powershell command or because of the DLLs
