Microsoft Store + Microsoft Edge + Microsoft Security

Hi!

I'm trying to publish my app to the Microsoft Store. While I pass all verification checks successfully, there's one exception — "10.2.10 Security".

The problem is that Microsoft's suggested solution for publishing my application in the Store isn't working for me at all. The moderation team asks me to report the file as safe directly from the browser, but this function is non-responsive (clicking produces no result, and nothing opens, and consequently there's nothing to fill out) even in the latest browser version.

I've reported the file directly through Microsoft Security Intelligence, but this hasn't resolved the issue either.

Could you please tell me, are there any other ways to "clear" the file so that Edge stops flagging it and Microsoft can finally publish it in the Store, allowing my app to reach its audience? My digitally signed app has no reputation yet, so users and the Store won't download it from my website (Edge warns them against using rare apps). But I can't build reputation without getting into the Store first, creating a catch-22 situation :(

    Hi @nk,

    The moderation team asks me to report the file as safe directly from the browser, but this function is non-responsive

    Unfortunately, this "report this file as safe" button is having some issues so it is under fix currently. The workaround is to use Edge Canary or Edge Dev to report your file as safe. The "report" button will redirect you to a feedback page, then you're good to go. Thanks for your understanding.
