Is this app on a blacklist?
Why Win10 Defender refuses to install this app? It says "Uknown publisher" -- nevertheless it gives a "Run anyway" button, so the issue is not very serious...
Freeware, Not a New Policy
We only digitally sign open source installers except for live installers where we control everything in the package (example: Google Chrome) or very specific widespread freeware from major publisher where we have a policy to do so (example: Opera). Other freeware is never signed with our digital signature (example: Balabolka, AIMP, etc). Some publishers package their own freeware apps and digitally sign it themselves (example: HWiNFO).
Short, biased review
1. Orthodox: 2 panes like Norton, Total,etc. etc Commanders - so far, so good.
2. Borrows from Office's ribbon menu -- and Office's sluggishness
Ribbon menu is a genetic dead end, it eats up way many pixel rows from already few caused by the odd 16:10 (16:9) screen ratio.
I guess sluggishness comes from the not top notch program library of the dev. environment.
Still it worth a try as a multiple format file previewer. Maybe others fall in love. I deleted.
Disable Ribbon
You can disable the ribbon in Manage - Preferences - General - Use Classic UI instead of Ribbon UI.
