How to Run Limes on Windows if You See a Security Warning
Sometimes, when you download and try to run Limes, Windows may show a security message like this:
“Windows protected your PC” Windows Defender SmartScreen might block the game, even though it's safe to use.
Here’s how you can bypass this message:
- When you see the message "Windows protected your PC", click on the link that says More info.
- After clicking More info, you will see additional details about the app, including the developer's name. At the bottom, you'll see a button that says Run anyway.
- Click Run anyway to start the game. This will allow Limes to run on your computer.
Rest assured, the game is completely safe to play!
For Mac Users:
- Download the "Limes folder ending with Mac" file.
- Find the downloaded file in Finder.
- Double-click the file to unzip it.
- After unzipping, you will find the "Limes.app" file.
- Double-click the "Limes.app" file to launch the game. If your Mac restricts opening apps from unidentified developers, control-click the "Limes.app" and choose "Open" from the menu to bypass the restriction.
Some Mac users may experience additional problems. I would recommend to download the PDF called MAC_USERS_READ_BEFORE_DOWNLOAD, for a more comprehensive description.
Enjoy the world of "Limes"!
