ProTitser · Install guide

How to install ProTitser

Follow the pictures. In each one, press the part with the gold ring. For Windows 10 and 11. No internet is needed to install.

  1. 1Download
  2. 2Open the zip
  3. 3Run anyway
  4. 4Install
  5. 5Open ProTitser

Windows will show warnings. That is normal.

ProTitser is new, and Windows warns about any program that only a few people have downloaded. The file is safe when it came from protitser.com or your authorized distributor.

1Download the installer

1On protitser.com, press Download for Windows.
2If you see this, press Keep. (Click the small arrow or the three dots to find it.)
3If it asks again, press Show more, then Keep anyway.

2Open the zip file

1In Downloads, right-click the ProTitser zip file and choose Extract All.
2Press Extract. A folder opens.
3Double-click Install ProTitser. It gets the installer ready and opens it for you.

3If a blue box appears: More info, then Run anyway

1Click the words More info.
2Press Run anyway.
3If Windows asks this, press Yes.

No Run anyway button, or the file still will not open? See “If Windows still blocks the installer”, then come back to step 4.

4Follow the installer

1Press Next, then Install.
2Wait until the green bar is full.
3Press Finish.

5Open ProTitser

1Double-click ProTitser on your desktop, or find it in the Start menu.
2Use it free for 7 days. Nothing to type yet.
3To activate: Settings → License, type your key, press Activate.

If Windows still blocks the installer

Install ProTitser in step 2 already unblocks the installer for you. If Windows still stops it, try A, then B.

AUnblock the file yourself

1Right-click the ProTitser setup file, then choose Properties.
2At the bottom, tick Unblock, then press OK.
3Double-click the file again.

No Unblock box? Then do B.

BTurn off reputation-based protection for a moment

1Press Start, type Windows Security, and open it.
2Click App & browser control.
3Click Reputation-based protection settings.
4Switch these three to Off: Check apps and files, SmartScreen for Microsoft Edge and Potentially unwanted app blocking. Press Yes if Windows asks.
5Open the installer again and finish steps 3 to 5.
6Switch all three back On when ProTitser is installed.

Do not skip picture 6. These three switches protect your laptop from other downloads and websites. ProTitser keeps working with them on. The yellow “Your device may be vulnerable” notes go away once they are back on.

CWindows 11 says “Smart App Control blocked”

1In App & browser control, click Smart App Control settings.
2Choose Off, then open the installer again.

Think first: once Smart App Control is Off, Windows does not let you switch it back on without resetting the laptop. Do this only on your own laptop. On a school laptop, ask your ICT coordinator.

DThe file disappeared, or an antivirus removed it

  • Download it again from protitser.com.
  • Using Avast, McAfee, Kaspersky or another antivirus? Open it and choose Allow or Restore for the ProTitser file.
  • To be sure the file is genuine, use Check that your download is genuine in the Download section of protitser.com.
