Official download sources

• Use the official Downloads page on the Deep Art website to get installers for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
• Avoid third‑party mirrors, file‑sharing sites, or links shared in forums.

Verify Installer on Windows (signature)

1. Right‑click the downloaded .exe → Properties.
2. Open the Digital Signatures tab.
3. Select the signature → Details → View Certificate.
4. The certificate should be valid. If Windows reports problems, download again from the official page.

Since the installer is signed, SmartScreen should not block the launch.

Verify Installer on macOS (signature)

1. Open the .dmg and drag the app into Applications.
2. Launch the app from Applications. On current macOS versions, a signed/notarized app launches without additional prompts.
3. If macOS ever flags the file, re‑download from the official page and try again.

Optional: verify checksum 

If the Downloads page lists an SHA‑256 (or similar) hash, you can verify file integrity:

• Windows (PowerShell/CMD):

  certutil -hashfile <installer>.exe SHA256

• macOS / Linux (Terminal):

  shasum -a 256 <installer>.dmg   # macOS
  sha256sum <installer>.AppImage  # Linux, or use shasum -a 256

Compare the printed hash with the value on the Downloads page. If they differ, delete the file and download again.

Tips & common pitfalls

• Always close the browser download bar before running the installer—some browsers keep a file handle open.
• Do not run from the Downloads folder on Linux; for archives, extract to a writable folder (e.g., ~/Apps/DeepArtEffects) before launching.
• Corporate proxies/AV: If a proxy scans executables, it can alter signatures. Re‑download on a clean network or temporarily disable HTTPS inspection if permitted by policy.
