That's been the ordeal since Vista, lol. Not much we can do about it unless the users want to pitch in for a trust-certificate.

Other than that, it would require a self-signed cert, that would require the user to be an admin to accept anyways.
Microsoft kind-of has our hands tied. However, I will soon be adding logic to the application/installer to allow it to be run from your
C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files [(bit flavor)]\Titan Network\Mids' Hero & Villain Designer
Which is the equivalent of running it from your computer's C:\Program Files... but without the need of admin rights.
Microsoft uses this directory for OneClick applications, which we can't use because Mids is simply too complex and relies on the NSIS installer.
Using this folder will grand FULL access to the application without the need of admin mode/rights.
Might cause a few issues though:
- If you're not an admin you can't install more than one copy of Mids...
- I'm assuming you're not a power-user that needs access to the files if you're not running in admin mode, so burying the files in your AppData folder shouldn't affect you.
- It will only be installed for THAT user who installed it... the "Everyone" option is only available to admins.
