Hi. PM on Windows Dev Platform here. Wasn't sure if this was a discussion or an issue, so posted here.

We're working on some "new & improved things" that would benefit from apps and tools like curl being signed & distributed via a signed installer package (MSI/MSIX), including:

  • A simplified process for installing apps and tools on Windows
  • Improve perf by minimizing number and frequency of scans by anti-malware tools like Defender

Have/would you consider:

  1. Signing curl binaries with a cert chained to a CA?
  2. Bundling curl outputs in a signed installer package?
  3. Distributing curl installer packages for Windows?
