Windows SmartScreen warning

Confirm the installer source

A new publisher or beta installer can trigger extra Windows prompts. The important step is confirming the installer came from the official signed-in download page.

1. 1 Do not run installers sent through email, chat, or third-party download sites.
2. 2 Sign in at proofmehard.com and open the download page.
3. 3 Download a fresh installer from that page.
4. 4 Compare the filename with the current download page expectation.

When to contact support

1. 1 Contact support before continuing if the installer came from anywhere except proofmehard.com.
2. 2 Contact support if the warning mentions a different publisher, damaged file, or blocked administrator policy.
3. 3 Send the Windows version and a screenshot of the warning.
