[Windows] SublimeText4 Installer is "Publisher: Unknown"?

#1

I am trying to update to the latest SublimeText version. Windows UAC doesn’t recognize the [signed] installer exe as coming from a known publisher.
When I check it with the DigiCert Utility, it confirms the signature is legitimate. So I’m fairly sure this is a false positive, but was hoping to get some external confirmation. And also help other affected users when they inevitably Google this and don’t find anything useful (as I did).

I found a thread on the MS forum where an unrelated Windows app [which uses the same DigiCert G4 Code Signing root] broke due to some Windows update marking it as malicious. Not clear if it’s related.

Any ideas?

Just tried on both windows 10 and windows 11 and both of them show the publisher in the UAC prompt.
