First of all, the properties of the executable show it very clearly.

Second, https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=509799#c4 this comment.

Rolf,

I don't believe what you suggest is the case.  The eclipse.exe in the p2 repository, like all the artifacts in the repository, is signed.    Otherwise, if one did an update and the executable needed to be updated, it would be updated with an unsigned version, which would not be acceptable.  What makes you think/assume that these are not signed?

Hi,

I came across the bug below. What triggered me from the comments on Bug 509799 is, that the 'eclipse.exe' is apparently signed as part of the EPP build. As we are pushing Eclipse-Installer now, many installations contain a 'eclipse.exe' that is not signed.

So maybe the problem is not how to let Microsoft trust the Eclipse Signature, but more how to *ensure that the 'eclipse.exe' is signed on all installations*.

Unfortunately a no-go.  Gave it a try and despite taking 1.5 minutes to run the command line, it still took the full first scan after running the exe that had already been scanned.

It seems we'd need some guidance from Microsoft in how to get some/all of Eclipse whitelisted in their Security Intelligence.  Perhaps at least major releases can have their Jars registered...

C:\Users\tim>"%programfiles%\Windows Defender\mpcmdrun" -AddDynamicSignature ...
You need administrator privilege to execute this command.

Perhaps there is a way we can register the signature and have the Eclipse Installer ask the user for permissions to invoke registering the Eclipse Signature as an approved certificate?

    Can you make one of the affected persons try running this before
    they
    start eclipse?

    "%programfiles%\Windows Defender\mpcmdrun" -scan -file
    "full_path_to_eclipse_installation"

    If that helps, we could potentially add this to the installer
    (but not
    the ZIPs, of course), in the hope Defender afterwards remembers it
    already scanned the installation. However, I have no experience
    with the
    above, I just googled around for cmd line interaction with defender.
    There are also more options (like different scan types), not sure if
    that makes an additional difference.


    Another potential issue to check: Windows marks downloaded files
    automatically as "unsafe". See
    
https://www.howtogeek.com/70012/what-causes-the-file-downloaded-from-the-internet-warning-and-how-can-i-easily-remove-it/
    for an instruction of how to remove that marker from many files.
    I'm not
    sure if this really has any relation with Windows defender scans, I
    think it only triggers the "Do you really want to..." popup.


    That all being said, at our company we have given up to find
    something
    better than filters as workaround. With TrendMicro Antivirus on
    access
    scanning being active, every git operation inside eclipse is
    about 10
    times slower than with eclipse filtered from the scan.

    Ciao, Michael
