    I had a weird download. The file kept coming down as *“Unconfirmed 620954.crdownload ” and wouldn’t open; it wanted to use Notepad.

    It also gave the message **“Install_146Pro_MSFS_0.1.1 is not commonly downloaded. Make sure you trust it before you open it.” I downloaded it at least 4-5 times with still the same message. I could not find any similar experiences on the forum.

    So I tried changing the downloaded file’s name to “Install_146Pro_MSFS_0.1.1.exe”, opened it as administrator, and “eureka”, it installed correctly and appears to be working properly.

      @nigelgrant Yeah, Windows likes to take matters into its own hands, but if you click More Info on the "this might be dangerous blah blah" screen there's a Keep Anyway.

      Then you have to jump through hoops to run it.

      Just Flight might consider packing them in .zips just to get around that bullshit.
