Works.


The current release (0.15) doesn't support natively the "Metro" interface, so you need to open the "Desktop" tile and install/use throught standard desktop.

--------------------------------
When run the installation of Osiris, a warning are showed:

We are research a solution to signing a publisher ID to avoid this kind of warning. We don't know anything about that just now.
--------------------------------
In the "Metro" interface, two tiles are showed:

In future release, maybe only one tiles will be showed, called "Osiris - Serverless Portal System".

A specific, custom "Metro" Tile are not a priority to develop, sorry.

We are research a solution to signing a publisher ID to avoid this kind of warning. We don't know anything about that just now.

We understand that signing the installer require a special certificate. The cheaper was around $180 per year, and don't remove the warning above: it's only for identify the publisher, but don't give "trust" to them by default. So, useless.
We understand that a full, trusted signing certificate require a "Microsoft's Authenticode" that will cost around $400 per year.

I don't find any open-source programs that have this kind of trusting certificate. If you know one, please report here.

We will implement this signing on Osiris build, if anyone will donate a Microsoft's Authenticode certificate to us (or the money to buy it).
