Common Mistakes


Why does Windows show a security warning when I run the program?

img2html-gui.exe is not code-signed, which means Windows may display an “Unknown app” warning the first time you run it.

Option 1 - Unblock the file before running (recommended) 1. Right-click img2html-gui.exe and select Properties. 2. At the bottom, check “Unblock” under the Security section. 3. Click OK, then run the program normally.

Option 2 - Proceed from the warning screen 1. On the “Windows protected your PC” screen, click “More info”. 2. Click the “Run anyway” button that appears.

img2html.exe (the console program) runs without this warning.
