howie eye Posted August 29, 2016 Posted August 29, 2016 (edited) What I think is the problem is the program is not optimized for windows 10. My friends who have windows 7 seem to load the program quickly. The others . like me, that are running windows 10 wait several minutes for the program to start installing. That seems to be the difference. that I can find. for some reason, windows 10 thinks its a virus and slowly installs it. Note... it has been like this since the update of WOT...every Aslains modpack goes in slowly Edited August 29, 2016 by howie eye Quote
Moderator Quaksen Posted August 29, 2016 Moderator Posted August 29, 2016 The problem is Windows Defender. It's doing something funky. I got Windows 10 too, and install without issues. I use another program for internet security/anti-virus and what not. Quote
oldsurferjoe Posted August 29, 2016 Posted August 29, 2016 This has been an issue for me as well since the WOT 9.15. I have had to turn off Windows Defender while using Aslain's Mod pack. Quote
howie eye Posted August 29, 2016 Author Posted August 29, 2016 That makes sense....so the .exe file is probably not certified ...maybe that s it? Quote

Kenttarovasti Posted August 29, 2016 Posted August 29, 2016 (edited) 1 hour ago, howie eye said: any ETA my friend? Never. Just make a new folder where you download these mod .exe files and from Windows Defender go to the settings and exclude that new folder. This way you don't have to disable the Defender. exclude.pdf Edited August 29, 2016 by Kenttarovasti Quote

Prowler_DK Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 (edited) Well, even with Defender disabled, installer is slow! (And i do have files in different folder) Earlier pack were ok.... Disregard It seems that defender reactivates DOH! It is defender that intervenes... Thx. for help Howie Eye. Edited September 4, 2016 by Prowler_DK Quote
Darth_Clicker Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 Probably any well known 3rd party free antivirus software is less trouble/better than Windows Defender. Quote
Exhall Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 I tried this and it still doesn't work. Now I get the spinning blue circle for a few seconds and then nothing. Quote
My_Gaming_TV Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Currently if you are using Windows Defender and are having this problem all it takes is to turn off real time protection before opening Aslains Mod pack installer Right click or double click the Windows Defender icon in your notification area When Windows Defender opens click on settings Windows Defender settings window opens up and give you a number of options, go to where it says Real-time protection and click it till it says off Close windows Defender settings but keep Windows Defender open so you can re-enable Windows Defender when you are done installing your mods with the installer I don't know why I don't have this problem but many others do, but I have a friend who has this problem and he did the above steps and it just makes the installer work a little faster but another difference is he has a slower (2.6GHz 8GB memory and everything is on an old Seagate HDD) computer with many older parts and I'm running a practically brand new machine with a 5.03 GHz processor 32GB memory and everything on an SSD rather than a HDD.
