Any user suspected of farming GitHub activity with crypto purposes will get banned. Submitting broken code wastes the contributors' time, who have to spend their free time reviewing, fixing, and testing code that does not even compile breaks other features, or does not introduce any useful changes. Thank you for your understanding.

**Q: My antivirus is telling me that UniGetUI is a virus! / My browser is blocking the download of UniGetUI!**<br>

A: A common reason apps (i.e., executables) get blocked and/or detected as a virus — even when there's nothing malicious about them, like in the case of UniGetUI — is because they're not being used by a relatively large amount of people.

Combine that with the fact that you might be downloading something recently released, and blocking unknown apps is in many cases a good precaution to take to prevent actual malware.

A: UniGetUI, Microsoft, and Scoop aren't responsible for the packages available for download, which are provided by third parties and can theoretically be compromised.

Microsoft has implemented a few checks for the software available on Winget to mitigate the risks of downloading malware. Even so, It's recommended to only download software from publishers that you trust.
