@tnaman300 what is the AV ? 

[tnaman300]

I don't know .

[Kasun Bandara]

@tnaman300 what is the antivirus you have? how you know it blocked?

[tnaman300]

i only have the windows security system installed , no other AV is installed on my laptop. once it completes the download it automatically says virus detected  in my download section and then it removes the file

[tnaman300]

i also tried to download it in the folder which is excluded from virus checks , but still the problem continues

@tnaman300 are you using chrome? 

[tnaman300]

yes and i also tried microsoft edge

@tnaman300 i guess your windows defender mistakenly mark this as virus. try to add exception and allow it.

[tnaman300]

how do I do that
