I currently have a python file which is using tools such as pygetwindow and pyautogui to navigate around a user’s computer.
It’s a very niche software for clients using my online portal. The file will be downloaded from here through S3 and each file is unique to the branch as the database ID is built into the script.
I am using installer to currently build the exe but it’s causing issues with Windows Defender SmartScreen (I believe it’s called that).
Is there a way I can build this in a way that it doesn’t have these issues? I am happy to look at removing packages if needed, but the whole idea of the software is to be totally hands off.
The reason for pygetwindow is to open a specific window. I don’t know if Windows Defender is stopping it, but often the code for opening that window runs fine but the actual window doesn’t open.
