All Deprecated Features & APIs
Future deprecation planned
SHA-1 signatures
To comply with Windows security updates, we will deprecate SHA-1 signatures in a future version. The impact is described below (we take 64bit Windows 7 as an example in below screenshots).
If the deprecation is implemented:
- When you try to install the Dynamsoft Service, you will get the following two error for “Unknown Publisher”.
- When you run the ActiveX Edition in IE, you will get a prompt to allow its execution.
For more information, check out Preparing for the deprecation of SHA-1 signatures from Microsoft.
The prompts are one-time, once you accept the “risk”, the software will install and run as usual.
The recommended fix is to patch the operating system, you can find the patch here.
