Scary Warnings - Unknown publisher

Scary Warning

Sorry, I have not yet figured out how to digitally sign my packages so Windows insists on splashing up a scary warning. If you know how I can improve this user experience, please let me know.

I can assure you that JPO doesn't spy on you, doesn't send spam and doesn't try to sell you anything. Better than that, it's open source software so you or someone you trust can go and analyse the lines of source code and compile your own version! Check out the linked code analysis tool reports to see how JPO is doing in terms of code quality, test coverage and other developer metrics.

Tiny Font

If you have a new laptop with a high resolution screen JPO might start up with a super tiny font. You can fix this by opening c:\Program Files\JPO, right-clicking on JPO.exe, Picking the Properties item on the menu, then picking the Compatibility tab, Clicking on the Change high DPI settings button, Ticking the Override high DPI scaling behaviour, and picking System instead of Application.
