Disabling your antivirus

The one thing that everyone gets mixed up on

Why should I disable it?

Please read this page to see why MainDab (and most other exploits) aren't a virus.

Before we continue...

If you use another antivirus (such as Avast), then that also must be disabled! There have been multiple instances where users don't disable other antiviruses they have.

Disabling Windows Security

Because Windows Security detects MainDab as a virus, you will need to disable Windows Security or you will not be able to use MainDab. Firstly, navigate to Windows Security. You can probably find this by searching it up in your Windows search bar.

Next, go to "Virus & threat protection".

Click "Manage settings" under "Virus & threat protection settings".

Next, disable everything you see.

Please note that real-time protection will automatically turn on again! We will later go over adding MainDab as an "exception" in Windows Security.

That's done! Now to actually downloading MainDab.
