ANALOG-ENGINEER-CALC: ANALOG-ENGINEER-CALC Version 1.71 Blocked by Windows Defender

Part Number: ANALOG-ENGINEER-CALC

Hello,

The latest version 1.71 of the Analog Engineer's Calculator is blocked by Windows Defender stating that it is from an "Unknown Publisher".

Unfortunately, I don't have control of how Windows Defender is applied (corporate IT policies). 

When I viewed the file properties, the PUBLISHER and PUBLISHER STATUS is blank.

An older version of the calculator lists the publisher as "Texas Instruments, Inc" and the status as "Signature Verified".

Is there anything on TI's end that could be done so that Windows Defender doesn't block the installation (maybe fix the publisher info)?

Thank you,

Don

  • Don,

    I am the primary developer of the calculator.  Let me look into this question.  I will see if there is an update that we can do so that you can install the calculator.  I hope to have a solution within the next week.

    Best regards, Art Kay

  • Hello Art.

    Is there an update on this? My IT dept. has looked at this and we still can't install even after accepting the instal through Window Defender. It just hangs and never completes. Maybe the Labview .exe generator needs the runtime and the MS VS 3.5 add-on stuff too. Or possbily create the installer, runtime engine, and MS tools as seperate .zips?

  • Hello Kevin,

    It appears a solution did not happen in that week. I don't expect an answer anytime soon. Do you have an older version to use?

    I apologize for the delay and difficulties.
