why ExplorerPatcher declared suspicious by chrome / windows ?

[alexisdal]

I just got a win 11 laptop. the location of the taskbar in the bottom of the screen is quite painful. SUPER irratating. I was struggle to just move it on the left part of the screen like I did many year ago on my win 10. just dragging it did nothing. To my surprise, after searching a bit, I understodd that microsoft simply disabled that feature entirely because it makes their life harder and it seems most poeple dont care anyway... 🤬🤬🤬

i stumbled upn this video => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CED25OhKPjI

that suggest to install a 3rd party tool to add the missing feature on window 11. and it's open source! great!

but when I try to download it, my chrome (Version 122.0.6261.113 (Official Build) (64-bit)) declares it suspicious.

I suggest to somehow modify the install file because it will make people nervous. it makes me nervous.
maybe it's about signing the software?

Chrome always does that to new files that haven't been downloaded much. It's also because the file isn't signed. You can safely download it.
