Download Instructions

 

When you download Film Designs 4, Microsoft Defender SmartScreen may display a message indicating the app is an "unrecognized app" and prevent it from starting. Don’t worry—this is a common precaution taken by Windows for software downloaded from the Internet.

Why Does This Happen?

Our software is safe and secure. However, Microsoft Defender SmartScreen may flag it as "unrecognized" because our app hasn’t yet built a broad reputation with Microsoft’s system. This doesn’t mean there’s a problem with the software.

What Should You Do?

  • Click "More Info"
  • When the warning appears, click the "More Info" link on the message.

  • Select "Run Anyway"
  • After clicking "More Info," you'll see the option to "Run Anyway." Click this to proceed with the installation.
