Why does Windows Defender/Smartscreen flag RemotePC

It means Windows Defender is doing its job, full explanation bellow.

Smartscreen Example

RemotePC, at its basic level works like this:

The Android app: It sends a command (e.g Shutdown) or it requests data (e.g Screenshots, Live Stats, Live Screen).

The Windows app: It will execute the commands by calling the specified windows API's or by returning the data requested by the Android app.

Now, why is Windows flagging it, it's not a Virus.

It's simple, Windows sees an Unsigned app that executes commands from another device and becomes suspicious.

Why is RemotePC unsigned.

Signing a Windows app is simply unaffordable for a non monitized app like ours, as it can cost up to 300$ per year. When the app was created we wanted to bring our users the best possible experience, without filling our app with ads or in app purchases. The cost of maintance of the app is already way too high, since we have to cover domain costs.

Security Tip

Download the app from the official site (remotepc.tech) only!

RemotePC will never compromise your Privacy or Security.
