About install warnings and how to verify

Fountrace is an independent-studio product; the installer currently ships without a paid commercial Authenticode code-signing certificate, so you may encounter the following common warnings when downloading or installing — they stem from a "new app without publisher reputation" and do not mean the installer contains malicious code:

  • SmartScreen blue prompt ("Windows protected your PC"): click "More info" → "Run anyway" to continue the installation.
  • Browser download warning (e.g. Edge flags it "might be unsafe"): choose "Keep" — the download path is HTTPS end to end.
  • Antivirus false positives: add the install directory to your allowlist and retry; if it is still blocked, report it to support@fountrace.com and we will investigate case by case.

You can verify the installer yourself: after downloading, run Get-FileHash .\<installer file name> -Algorithm SHA256 in PowerShell (the file name is filled in from the installer currently offered) and compare against the SHA-256 published above — a match means the package is intact. Fountrace's indexing and search run entirely locally and upload no files; the in-app update channel carries Ed25519 signature verification; the client code is open source and auditable.
