Windows Store failed certification related to .bank files

FMOD Engine
1

Hey there,

We’re trying to get a Windows desktop game to be approved by the Windows Store, and so far we have a blocking failed test about “blocked executables” within our .bank files:

Blocked executables
Detects if there are references to process launch APIs and blocked executables
File Master.bank contains a blocked executable reference to “Reg”.
File Master.bank contains a blocked executable reference to “CdB”.
File Master.bank contains a blocked executable reference to “dNX”.
File Master.bank contains a blocked executable reference to “Cmd”.
File Master.bank contains a blocked executable reference to “CSi”.
File Master.bank contains a blocked executable reference to “BASH”.

This is kind of weird since .bank are not executables.

Note that it’s a standard Windows desktop app (not UWP) packaged as an .appx that perfectly works (and this is our only failed test to pass certification).

We’re on FMOD 10.10.14.

Does anyone have insights about this?

Cheers!

There certainly isn’t any executable code within FMOD bank files, I’d report it to Microsoft as a bug in their cert validator.
