although I am not using Windows, we've been developing some software
that needs direct hardware access for quite some time now here at my
company.

We faced a similar situation in 2019 and apparently there is only one
"ultimate" solution: get an EV signing certificate from a CA trusted by
Microsoft to sign binaries. Truth is that getting it here in Central
(ehm, ehm, Eastern) Europe is almost impossible.

Getting OV certificate lowers the required number of
downloaded/installed instances before the SmartScreen warning goes away.
Getting EV one makes it go away immediately (usually - exceptions are
sadly not unheard of).

We followed the documentation for Windows drivers (which have the
strictest rules) at
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/dashboard/get-a-code-signing-certificate
- similar approach might help here as well.


Cheers,
Dominik
