WinFSP (Windows File System Proxy) is an open-source tool similar to FUSE on Linux. It's widely used and trusted.

You're Ready!

Why isn't Wormhole signed?
Windows code signing certificates cost $200-400/year. As a free, open-source project, we can't justify that cost. The entire codebase is public and all releases are built by GitHub Actions with full transparency.
