Microsoft Download Instructions for Double Match Triangulator (DMT)

Microsoft's new SmartScreen has become much more aggressive in the past few months. It may produce what seem like ominous messages warning you that DMT might put your PC at risk.

If you downloaded DMT from my site: www.doublematchtriangulator.com - and the "Publisher" is listed as Louis Kessler, then I can vouch, that the program is safe.

6. Click on "Keep anyway". The setup file will finally appear in your Downloads with the ability to open it. So now you can open (i.e. run) the installation program.
7. When you run the setup program, you may see the following window that Windows may issue:



8. Click on the "More info" link. The Window should change to this:



9. Click on "Run anyway". If you see the User Account Control window, then select "Yes" and you can finally start the install!

   

Yes, I know this is an onerous procedure. It's what Microsoft is imposing on small developers. For more of my take on this, see my blog post: That's not very Smart of you, Microsoft.
