Hey Casey55,

You should also post at [OFFICIAL Support Thread] Power-Equilab - Equity calculation tool to ensure that support sees it.

Regards

Laz

On the power-equilab download page I see this:

Perhaps you can try one of the other buttons.

I didn't try any of the three

In that picture right there the words there someone is stating “sometimes your computer claims a virus is contained in the installer”. I clicked that button and my computer said the download could harm my device, has anyone else experienced this? Is that the actual true pokerstrategy webpage? I was a bit suspicious because also in that writing the person says “ it is definitly not the case” , talking about a virus being in the file and spelling definitely wrong lol. Is that the legit program? I just dont want any viruses I had to recently wipe my computer because I caught a really nasty virus from some poker stuff before.

I'm using Windows 10 Pro with all the patches up to date.
I just downloaded the file using the top button in the picture and received now warning.

If someone could post a screenshot of the warning, I'll research it.
It is possible that this is the generic warning one gets when downloading a .exe file.

I suggest that you try to use the contact link to request an extension from Power-Equilab

Thanks for the advice Vorpal! Appreciate how quick you reply. I’ll try that out.
