Hi Simon,

FYI: Windows Defender on Win 11 just blocked the download of the file due to a virus:

upgrade-midronome-bootloader-step1-windows.zip dated 2024-11-25

Could you please check this?

Well it's definitely not a virus :roll:
Everything inside the the zip is signed with a proper certificate, but apparently that's not good enough for Microsoft :?

The problem with these kind of issues is the whole thing is based on "reputation" and that reputation keeps improving every time someone marks the download as safe. I will submit the zip file to Microsoft for analysis, that tends to accelarate slightly the process.

The only things inside the zip are: Try downloading them separately and let me know if these are identified as virus as well - thank you :)

Simon

Hi Simon,

no download issues with the individual files. Looks like there was a "false positive" warning for the ZIP file...
