2) Run installer (3 minutes)

• Right-click the installer and choose Run as administrator.
• Accept the license agreement and keep default install location unless you prefer otherwise.

3) Initial configuration (2 minutes)

• When the app opens, allow any required firewall or system permissions.
• Create a local account password for the app or sign in if you have an existing Desktop Armor account.
• Enable Real-time Protection and Auto-update toggles.

4) Quick scan (2 minutes)

• Start the Quick Scan from the main dashboard.
