Browser or Windows showing a warning?
Don’t worry. Browsers and Windows check how often a program has been downloaded. With new versions, a warning may therefore appear even though the file is perfectly fine.
Easier: Browsers usually download the version without installation (ZIP) without this warning. Windows may still ask once when you first start it; then choose “Run anyway” as described below.
In the browser: “This file is not commonly downloaded”
Edge: on the download, click the three dots … › Keep › Keep anyway.
Chrome: in the download list, click Download or Download anyway.
Firefox: in the download list, click the entry › Allow download.
On starting: “Windows protected your PC”
Click More info and then Run anyway.
How to recognise the genuine file: the setup and the program are digitally signed. After clicking More info, the Windows window shows the publisher as HMF-IT UG (haftungsbeschränkt). If it shows a different name or “Unknown publisher”, please don’t run the file and get in touch with us.
On the Mac the app is signed with our Developer ID and notarised by Apple. If macOS still asks once, a click on Open is enough. You can check the signature in Terminal with codesign -dv --verbose=2 "/Applications/HMF Address.app": it must say HMF-IT UG (haftungsbeschrankt).
Only download HMF Address here. You can check the file with the checksum (SHA-256) above: in PowerShell, Get-FileHash .\File.exe. On the Mac: shasum -a 256 file.dmg.
