LarryDrumAZ 12 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) Windows 8.1 smart screen blocks install of version 4.0.14. No issues with earlier versions of S4. Tell it to install anyway and works fine. Edited April 22, 2015 by LarryDrumAZ Link to post Share on other sites
Darryl Lambert 82 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I had an issue where smart screen blocked the LOR registration.Had to turn it off to get LOR to register the software. Link to post Share on other sites
LarryDrumAZ 12 Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 This is the first time it's appeared for me. Link to post Share on other sites
Darryl Lambert 82 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 It didn't even appear it just blocked it outright. During resistration LOR said it could not connect.I remember reading someone else having a issue with smart screen so I desided to disable it & voila resistration worked!!!

DevMike 429 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Unfortunately, there is not a lot we can do about programs like that. That includes Antivirus programs that like to give out false positives. We've tried to tell companies, and at best we never hear from them. At worst (like MS), they suggest we give them tens of thousands of dollars to be one of their 'partners' and they will make the issue go away. We will however put some documentation together about it, and how to get around it. Link to post Share on other sites
default 180 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I don't have Win 8.1 but probably will end up with it soon, so this is somewhat of a naive question. Is this Smart Screen always active in 8.1 or is it because you use IE as a browser? Link to post Share on other sites
Darryl Lambert 82 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Smart screen is enabled by default in Windows 8/8.1 I believe Smart Screen first showed up in IE8 and now is incorporated into windows explorer as well. Link to post Share on other sites
