Fix the Windows download warningThe download isn't really blocked. Follow these steps and you're in.
While downloading the installer you may see "isn't commonly downloaded", "make sure you trust it", or "Windows protected your PC". This isn't because the app is unsafe — it's a brand-new version few people have downloaded yet, so the browser double-checks. The Aleph Kids installer is code-signed under our company name (Aleph Lab Inc.).

Why does this warning appear? Right after a new version ships, few people have downloaded it yet, so the browser says "just double-check this one." As downloads add up, the warning disappears on its own.
Chrome and other browsers are similar In Chrome, click ⋯ → 'Keep' next to the file in the download bar at the bottom — same result.
