AV False Positive Mitigation (Experimental)

This release includes changes that attempt to reduce antivirus false positives. These are common techniques recommended by PyInstaller, but results may vary depending on the AV engine:

  • Custom PyInstaller Bootloader - Building from source creates a unique binary signature that shouldn't match known malware hashes
  • Disabled UPX Compression - UPX-packed executables are a common heuristic trigger
  • EXE Version Metadata - Proper CompanyName, FileDescription, and other metadata may improve AV trust signals

Note: If you still encounter false positives, please report them to the respective AV vendors. See BUILD.md for contact information.

For Developers

  • New scripts/setup_pyinstaller.py automates the bootloader build process
  • Updated scripts/create_icon.py to generate ICO from PNG source
  • Updated BUILD.md with detailed AV mitigation documentation
  • Build script now verifies PyInstaller installation and warns if custom bootloader is not in use

Installation

Download and run ScreenPrompt-1.0.2-Setup.exe - it includes everything you need.
