Posted on Nov 19, 2007 under Registry Hacks |

Disable the message from appearing warning you that “The Publisher Could Not Be Verified” when you run certain files.

1. Click Start–>Run and type gpedit.msc. Click OK

2. Go to User Configuration–>Administrative Templates–>Windows Components–>Attachment Manager

3. Add “*.exe” to the “Inclusion list for moderate risk file types” setting. You can also add other file types.

This should disable the “Publisher Could Not Be Verified” messages from appearing for that file type in the future.
