Verify before you run
Every release ships SHA-256 checksums, an SBOM and GitHub build provenance. Releases are not yet Authenticode-signed (the project holds no code-signing certificate) so Windows will warn on first run. Verify integrity yourself:
# checksum
Get-FileHash winsight-v0.10.5-win-x64.zip -Algorithm SHA256
# build provenance
gh attestation verify winsight-v0.10.5-win-x64.zip --repo ClementG91/winsight

Install in four steps
- 01
Download the installer matching your processor architecture from the latest GitHub release.
- 02
Verify its checksum using the adjacent .sha256 file, and optionally the GitHub attestation.
- 03
Run the installer and select English, French or Spanish. No elevation requested.
- 04
Launch WinSight from the Start menu and run your first Overview scan.
Optional: the outbound-firewall service
The firewall service is deliberately not installed by setup. It registers a LocalSystem service and mutates the Windows Filtering Platform, which should be an explicit decision. From an elevated console:
.\winsight-firewall-service.exe install
.\winsight-firewall-service.exe status
.\winsight-firewall-service.exe wfp-selftest
It starts audit-only. Enforcement is armed only through the dashboard's authenticated flow. Why it works this way →
Uninstall & troubleshooting
- Uninstall through the normal Windows uninstaller. If you installed the firewall service, remove it first with winsight-firewall-service.exe uninstall from an elevated console.
- If you enabled ransomware protection, turning it off removes its decoy files.
- SmartScreen warning on first run is expected until releases are code-signed. See the FAQ entry.
- Something is wrong right now? See RECOVERY.md in the repository.
- Security issue? Report privately on GitHub, never in public issues.
