[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 773177, member: 32260"] I pushed the new version 3.0.0.0 of 'Run By SmartScreen' tool. It is whitelisted by Avast, Emsisoft, Microsoft, and Symantec AV vendors. It will be added soon to the new version of Hard_Configurator. [LIST=1] [*]For 64-bit Windows: [URL='https://github.com/AndyFul/Run-By-Smartscreen/blob/master/RunBySmartscreen(x64).exe']AndyFul/Run-By-Smartscreen[/URL] [*]For 32-bit Windows: [URL='https://github.com/AndyFul/Run-By-Smartscreen/blob/master/RunBySmartscreen(x86).exe']AndyFul/Run-By-Smartscreen[/URL] [/LIST] The main idea of 'Run By SmartScreen' did not change. This program is intended to help the users to safely open all new files. There are some changes as compared to previous versions. The new version works as follows: [LIST=1] [*]Executables (COM, EXE, MSI, and SCR files) located in the System Space (= inside 'C:\Windows', 'C:\Program Files', 'C:\Program Files (x86)') are opened normally, without SmartScreen check. [*]The above executables located in the User Space (= outside 'C:\Windows', 'C:\Program Files', 'C:\Program Files (x86)') are checked by SmartScreen before running them by the user. [*]Files located in the User Space with potentially dangerous extensions (scripts, most MS Office files, etc.), are not allowed to open (similarly to Software Restriction Policies), and the program shows an alert. [*]Shortcuts with a command line in the 'Target' area, are always blocked and the program shows an alert. [*]Compressed archives not supported by Windows build-in unpacker (.7z, .arj, .rar, .zipx) are not opened - only the short instruction is displayed. [*]Popular formats related to MS Office and Adobe Acrobat Reader (DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, PUB, PPT, PPTX, ACCDB, PDF) are opened with the warning instruction, and the MOTW is added to the file. [*]During the installation, 'Run By SmartScreen' changes the Adobe Reader 10+/DC 'Protected View' setting, similarly to the default 'Protected View' setting in MS Office 2010+. So, 'Protected View' is applied when MS Office and Adobe Acrobat Reader 10+/DC are used for opening the popular documents (DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, PUB, PPT, PPTX, ACCDB, PDF). Other MS Office documents are considered as unsafe (see point 3). [*]Other files (ZIP archives, media, photos, etc.) are opened normally without warnings. [/LIST] The program has hardcoded list of unsafe (potentially dangerous) file extensions: ACCDA, ACCDE, ACCDR, ACCDT, ACM, AD, ADE, ADN, ADP, AIR, APP, APPLICATION, APPREF-MS, ARC, ASA, ASP, ASPX, ASX, AX, BAS, BAT, BZ, BZ2, CAB, CDB, CER, CFG, CHI, CHM, CLA, CLASS, CLB, CMD, CNT, CNV, COM, COMMAND, CPL, CPX, CRAZY, CRT, CRX, CSH, CSV, DB, DCR, DER, DESKLINK, DESKTOP, DIAGCAB, DIF, DIR, DLL, DMG, DOCB, DOCM, DOT, DOTM, DOTX, DQY, DRV, EXE, FON, FXP, GADGET, GLK, GRP, GZ, HEX, HLP, HPJ, HQX, HTA, HTC, HTM, HTT, IE, IME, INF, INI, INS, IQY, ISP, ITS, JAR, JNLP, JOB, JS, JSE, KSH, LACCDB, LDB, LIBRARY-MS, LOCAL, LZH, MAD, MAF, MAG, MAM, MANIFEST, MAPIMAIL, MAQ, MAR, MAS, MAT, MAU, MAV, MAW, MAY, MCF, MDA, MDB, MDE, MDF, MDN, MDT, MDW, MDZ, MHT, MHTML, MMC, MOF, MSC, MSH, MSH1, MSH1XML, MSH2, MSH2XML, MSHXML, MSI, MSP, MST, MSU, MUI, MYDOCS, NLS, NSH, OCX, ODS, OPS, OQY, OSD, PCD, PERL, PI, PIF, PKG, PL, PLG, POT, POTM, POTX, PPAM, PPS, PPSM, PPSX, PPTM, PRF, PRG, PRINTEREXPORT, PRN, PS1, PS1XML, PS2, PS2XML, PSC1, PSC2, PSD1, PSDM1, PST, PSTREG, PXD, PY, PY3, PYC, PYD, PYDE, PYI, PYO, PYP, PYT, PYW, PYWZ, PYX, PYZ, PYZW, RB, REG, RPY, RQY, RTF, SCT, SEA, SEARCH-MS, SEARCHCONNECTOR-MS, SETTINGCONTENT-MS, SHB, SHS, SIT, SLDM, SLDX, SLK, SPL, STM, SWF, SYS, TAR, TAZ, TERM, TERMINAL, TGZ, THEME, TLB, TMP, TOOL, TSP, URL, VB, VBE, VBP, VBS, VSMACROS, VSS, VST, VSW, VXD, WAS, WBK, WEBLOC, WEBPNP, WEBSITE, WS, WSC, WSF, WSH, XBAP, XLA, XLAM, XLB, XLC, XLD, XLL, XLM, XLSB, XLSM, XLT, XLTM, XLTX, XLW, XML, XNK, XPI, XPS, Z, ZFSENDTOTARGET, ZLO, ZOO The above list is based on SRP, Outlook Web Access, Gmail, and Adobe Acrobat Reader file extension blacklists. The files with extensions: BAT, CMD, CPL, DLL, JSE, OCX, and VBE are supported by SmartScreen Application Reputation. But, their SmartScreen detection is not good, so they are added to the list of unsafe file extensions. Even if they are accepted by SmartScreen, then will be blocked with notification. [/QUOTE]
