When I exported my game to windows auto installer and try to open it said WINDOWS PROTECTED YOUR PC
and that windows smart screen security detected a virus or malware
I did not put any malicious files in it myself so pls someone help I will not like to get hacked

So what’s happening is windows can’t read the file and it’s from an unrecognized publisher so windows just assumes it’s a virus. It’s not one so u just press more options on that windows protected your pc page and click run anyway. That pop up is common when downloading and running itch.io indie games.
