Encountering a “Windows protected your PC” screen when trying to run Eklipse Game Highlight? Don’t panic! Windows Defender SmartScreen is just doing its job, but sometimes it can be a bit overzealous.

Windows Defender SmartScreen is Microsoft’s cloud-based security system that safeguards your computer against phishing and malware. It checks the reputation of downloaded files and applications. If an app is new or not widely recognized, SmartScreen throws up a warning as a precautionary measure. Think of it as a bouncer at a club, double-checking IDs.

We’ll walk you through how to safely install Eklipse Game Highlight and understand why this warning appears in the first place. Rest assured, this feature is safe, and this guide will show you how to get past SmartScreen with confidence.

Why Is Eklipse Game Highlight Being Blocked?

So, why is Eklipse Game Highlight getting flagged? It boils down to software reputation. SmartScreen uses various factors to determine whether an application is trustworthy. The factors are download frequency, digital signatures, and historical behavior. Since this feature is relatively new, it hasn’t had the chance to build up a solid reputation. This triggers SmartScreen’s warning, even though the application itself is perfectly safe.

Step-by-Step Guide: Bypassing SmartScreen and Running Eklipse Game Highlight

Alright, let’s get this up and running. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Download Eklipse Game Highlight: Make sure you download it directly from our official website. This ensures you’re getting a clean, unaltered version of the software.
2. Install the App: When you run the installer, you might see the dreaded “Windows protected your PC” screen. Don’t freak out! This is where the magic happens.
3. Click ‘More Info’: Look for the “More info” option on the SmartScreen window. It’s usually located near the bottom. Click it!
4. Click ‘Run Anyway’: Once you click “More info,” the “Run anyway” button will appear. Go ahead and click it. This tells Windows that you understand the potential risk and want to proceed with the installation.
5. Finish Installation: Follow the remaining prompts to complete the installation.
