Fix the Windows download warningThe download isn't really blocked. Follow these steps to install.

While downloading the installer you may see "isn't commonly downloaded", "make sure you trust it", or "Windows protected your PC". That doesn't mean the app is unsafe. It's a 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.).

  1. Click the download icon (top right)

    Click the download (↓) icon at the top right of your browser to see the blocked file.

  2. Click the three dots (⋯) or arrow next to the file

    In the download list, click the three dots (⋯) or the small arrow (˅) next to Aleph Kids Setup …​.exe to open its menu. Don't click Delete.

  3. Click "Keep"

    Click Keep. If it asks again, click Keep anyway.

  4. When the download finishes, click Open

    Once the file has downloaded, click Open to start the installer.

  5. If Windows warns again: "More info → Run anyway"

    If "Windows protected your PC" appears, click More info, then the Run anyway button that shows up.

  6. Click Next through the installer

    When the installer opens, click Next until it finishes.
Why does this warning appear? When a new version has just come out, few people have downloaded it yet, so the browser says "just double-check this one." As more people download it, the warning goes away on its own.
Chrome works the same way In Chrome, press Ctrl+J to open the download list, then click 'Keep' or 'Continue' next to the file.
Still blocked? If these steps don’t work, contact support. We’ll look at your screen with you and help right away.
