TomFace 1 Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 I down loaded the Emergency Kit yesterday from the Emsisoft website. When I went to run it, first I got the warning message about "Unknown Publisher". I did eventually see the UAC window with the verified publisher. Anyone know why that may have happened? I am still getting the Unknown Publisher message on the Commandline scanner which I have not run. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TomFace 1 Posted April 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Here you go-I just deleted yesterdays version and redownloaded again-same issue. I did send in a e-mail to support. I admit I did click on the Emer kit scanner instead of start, but same issue occurs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GT500 854 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 That's normal when you download an executable file using Internet Explorer. Just go ahead and click Run. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TomFace 1 Posted April 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Not sure about it being normal, but you should know your product. Just wanted to be sure. TY Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GT500 854 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Not sure about it being normal... You've never seen that "Open File - Security Warning" message before? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob R. 20 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Tomface, EmergencyKitScanner.bat is a windows batch file, and a windows batch file is never signed. Therefore the publisher can not be verified. It's basically a text file with instructions and a .bat extension. ECHO OFF cd Run start a2emergencykit.exe Exit If you start the menu with start.exe (which is signed) and select "Emergency Kit Scanner", then start.exe will open EmergencyKitScanner.bat and follow the instructions in EmergencyKitScanner.bat which are; Go to the Run directory and start a2emergencykit.exe (which is also signed). So, if you'd like to skip the menu, open the Run directory, start a2emergencykit.exe and you won't see the 'publisher could not be verified message'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TomFace 1 Posted April 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 OK-just wanted to be sure. Thanks again...I try to learn something new everyday... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
