| Rolf, I don't believe what you suggest is the case.  The eclipse.exe in
      the p2 repository, like all the artifacts in the repository, is
      signed.    Otherwise, if one did an update and the executable
      needed to be updated, it would be updated with an unsigned
      version, which would not be acceptable.  What makes you
      think/assume that these are not signed?

      Hi, I came across the bug below. What triggered me from the
        comments on Bug 509799 is, that the 'eclipse.exe' is apparently
        signed as part of the EPP build. As we are pushing
        Eclipse-Installer now, many installations contain a
        'eclipse.exe' that is not signed. 
 So maybe the problem is not how to let Microsoft trust the
        Eclipse Signature, but more how to ensure that the
          'eclipse.exe' is signed on all installations.
 Bug 539954  - eclipse installer "SimRel
            2018‑09" from ibm cloud is reported as virus infected
          Bug 509799  - Symantec reports a Trojan
            SONAR.AM.C!g24 in eclipse

        Unfortunately a no-go.  Gave it a try and despite
          taking 1.5 minutes to run the command line, it still took the
          full first scan after running the exe that had already been
          scanned.
           
 It seems we'd need some guidance from Microsoft in how to
            get some/all of Eclipse whitelisted in their Security
            Intelligence.  Perhaps at least major releases can have
            their Jars registered...   
 C:\Users\tim>"%programfiles%\Windows
              Defender\mpcmdrun" -AddDynamicSignature ...You need administrator privilege to execute this command.
 
 
 Perhaps there is a way we can register the signature and
            have the Eclipse Installer ask the user for permissions to
            invoke registering the Eclipse Signature as an approved
            certificate?

          Can you make one of the
            affected persons try running this before theystart eclipse?
 
 "%programfiles%\Windows Defender\mpcmdrun" -scan -file
 "full_path_to_eclipse_installation"
 
 If that helps, we could potentially add this to the
            installer (but not
 the ZIPs, of course), in the hope Defender afterwards
            remembers it
 already scanned the installation. However, I have no
            experience with the
 above, I just googled around for cmd line interaction with
            defender.
 There are also more options (like different scan types), not
            sure if
 that makes an additional difference.
 
 
 Another potential issue to check: Windows marks downloaded
            files
 automatically as "unsafe". See
 https://www.howtogeek.com/70012/what-causes-the-file-downloaded-from-the-internet-warning-and-how-can-i-easily-remove-it/
 for an instruction of how to remove that marker from many
            files. I'm not
 sure if this really has any relation with Windows defender
            scans, I
 think it only triggers the "Do you really want to..." popup.
 
 
 That all being said, at our company we have given up to find
            something
 better than filters as workaround. With TrendMicro Antivirus
            on access
 scanning being active, every git operation inside eclipse is
            about 10
 times slower than with eclipse filtered from the scan.
 
 Ciao, Michael
