⚠️ Important — Read before installing
HudHud IDE is currently signed with a self-signed certificate. This means Windows will show you two warnings during installation. These warnings are not malware indicators — they appear because we have not yet obtained a certificate from an official (paid) certificate authority. Please follow the steps below.
📥 Installation Steps
- 1 Click the Download HudHud IDE button above. Your browser may show a warning — click Keep.
- 2 Double-click the downloaded hudhud-aide-v0.4.46-win-x64-setup.exe file.
- 3 Follow the SmartScreen and UAC prompts as described below.
Warning 1 — Windows SmartScreen
Windows protected your PC
Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting.
App: hudhud-aide-v0.4.46-win-x64-setup.exe
Publisher: HudHud Mind
More info
- Click the More info link at the bottom-left.
- Verify it says Publisher: HudHud Mind.
- Click the Run anyway button that appears.
Warning 2 — UAC (Administrator Permission)
Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?
hudhud-aide-v0.4.46-win-x64-setup.exe
Verified publisher: Unknown
Do not be alarmed by Verified publisher: Unknown — the self-signed certificate is not yet recognized. Click Yes to start the installation.
After this step, the installer wizard runs normally.
🐧 Linux Installation
Make the downloaded installer executable and run it in terminal:
chmod +x hudhud-aide-v0.4.46-linux-x64-installer.run
./hudhud-aide-v0.4.46-linux-x64-installer.run
🔒 Why These Warnings?
- Code-signing certificate: Guarantees the software comes from the claimed company and has not been modified.
- SmartScreen reputation: Microsoft checks whether this app has been downloaded safely many times.
We sign with our own (self-signed) certificate.
As our user base grows, we will transition to an official certificate. Thank you for your patience. 🙏
