Describe the enhancement you want to request

Hey! Really cool project — I’m testing the Windows desktop release and ran into an issue on managed Windows machines.

The current Windows .exe isn’t Authenticode-signed, so Microsoft Defender / ASR blocks it and ends up quarantining or deleting it (even if temporarily allowed). The .exe.sig is great for integrity, but unfortunately Windows doesn’t use GPG signatures for trust.

Any chance of:

a code-signed Windows installer (.exe or .msi), or

a portable ZIP build for Windows?

Either would make it much easier to run in enterprise / Intune-managed environments. Happy to test if helpful!

    This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

    • Windows Defender falsely flags new releases as trojans #3415: Windows Defender falsely flags new releases as trojans - This is a tracked issue that specifically mentions code-signing Windows artifacts (Authenticode; timestamped) as a solution to reduce AV false positives and address the exact concerns you've raised about Defender/ASR blocking in enterprise environments.

    Feel free to ignore if none of these address your specific case.

    As of OpenCode v1.3.4 across the CLI + Desktop apps, we have full code signing - so there should be no more warnings.

    Please let me know otherwise
