April 8, 20206 yr Ever time I try to down load from F1 software windows says virus threat and deletes down load. I have downloaded several times before with no problem. I do not know how to get past this as I say keep anyway but windows deletes download. I have disable windows defender and have no other anti soft ware. so question is how do I download gtn750? percy Edited April 11, 20206 yr by RXP
April 8, 20206 yr I am another end user like you. Based on your message I am not clear on where you are experiencing the problem. You day downloading the F1 software. Have you tried downloading from the Reality XP website? That is where I purchased and downloaded from. With each update I get a similar virus warning, but I am able to bypass the warning and download successfully. I use Windows 10, Windows Defender, and MalwareBytes. The license verification/eCommerce wrapper during installation is via the F1 eCommerce site, but my initial download to get the process started is from the Reality XP site.

April 8, 20206 yr Author The f1 ecommerce is where I download from, both updates and reinstall which I download from ecommerce. I tried buying new and still run into same problem. so I guess will go back to F1 gtn750.
April 8, 20206 yr Turn off your anti virus software (including Windows defender) whilst you download and make sure you add exclusions to all your flight sim folders.

April 13, 20206 yr Author Thank you, I was finally able to figure out how to get by the windows 10 protection. Excluding the file would not work as as soon as downloaded windows would erase the file. I should not have to go through this and put my entire computer open to any type of virus just to down load one file. All other files from F1 software will down load with no problem. I don't know why this can not be fixed. Any way it is now working. percy.

One day it is passing through, the other day the antivirus is flagging the files. It happens randomly depending on how they are updating their heuristics. There is a dedicated discussion here:
