## Known Issues and Fixes
### Launch Issues:
- Windows Security (formerly Defender) and other anti-virus software are known to block the script. The script gets flagged due to the fact that it requires administrator privileges & makes drastic system changes.
- If possible: Allow script in Anti-Virus software settings.
- If you are having TLS 1.2 issues, or are having trouble resolving `christitus.com/win` then run with the following command:
```
[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol=[Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12;iex(New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil/releases/latest/download/winutil.ps1')
```
- If you are unable to resolve `christitus.com/win` and are getting errors launching the tool, it might be due to India blocking GitHub's content domain and preventing downloads.
