Thankyou. The link is the official electrum website. Why is that a problem or am I misunderstanding you? Please explain. In the meanwhile will place the main home page as follows.. https://electrum.org/#home If its coming from Electrums website I am sure the file will not be an issue.
Verifying the files signatures should be a mandatory step when downloading Electrum. There are many reasons why someone could end up in the wrong website or trusting a phishing email/message. Lets not forget the last vulnerability where Electrum was showing fake please update messages leading to an infected wallet.
Since it was coming from the legit wallet, people fell for it. But if they had the habit of verifying the signatures, they would know that something wasnt right. Lets not be lazy with our security; always double check your files.
