How to Add Download Folder to Antivirus Whitelist?

Adding your download path to the "whitelist" prevents the installer from being silently and mistakenly deleted by the system the moment it is downloaded. This is a crucial preliminary step to ensure a smooth software installation and effectively resolves the issue of "not being able to find the installer after downloading." Settings for various software: - Windows Defender: Click [Add an exclusion] in "Exclusions" -> select [Folder] and choose your common download directory. - Third-party software (360/Huorong/Manager): Find [Trust Zone] or [Whitelist] in [Protection Center] or [Settings] and add the download path. - Expert Tip: Always ensure your download source is the official direct link dl.gamebuff.cn to avoid obtaining infected installers from unofficial third-party sites.
