Powerlogger Win 10 virus detected

[AN/GSC-52]

Trying to download the Win 10 version from the Turbo Tweak site. Get a pop up saying Virus detected which stops the download. Am I doing something wrong?

It's odd I downloaded to my phone and ran a virus check nothing detected. Perhaps my laptops security settings are to strict?

It seems to be ok. I can download it here and its fine. Some antivirus software doesn't like it when there is an EXE file in the download (like Powerlogger.exe).
Usually you can direct it to ignore the message and use it anyway.
If not, email me, and I can try to temporarily rename it, like Powerlogger.txt instead, then you'll have to rename it back once downloaded.

Thanks, I'll trial dialing back the anti-virus setting tomorrow!

I got another computer Win 11.
Was able to download and install the software and drivers but now cannot get drivers to load see image. Any suggestions.

you have an older powerlogger than needs to be updated to use the signed drivers that the newer Windows wants. There are some workarounds but they a bit of a pain.

The worst part is that you need an even older version of windows to perform the update (I have an old Vista laptop that I keep around for this)

If I use a Win 7 laptop will that fix this issue?

I see the new Powerlogger is sold out at the moment. Really don't want to redo all that anyway. Getting a cheap Win 7 laptop may be easier?

We have Powerloggers in stock here. But you really just need to send yours to me, I can update it and send it back.
