Asked By MellowCedar42 On

I've tried downloading Ventoy several times from its official website, but each attempt is blocked with a "couldn't download file — malicious file detected" warning. Is there another reliable way to obtain an official copy, and how can I make sure the download is genuine?

The official download page points to Ventoy’s SourceForge files, so you can try downloading the release directly there. If the browser keeps blocking it, command-line tools such as curl or wget may work better. After downloading, verify the file’s checksum or signature if one is provided.

A download manager could also help if the browser download itself is failing, but make sure it uses the official download link rather than an untrusted mirror.

Your browser may be overreacting to the file. Try downloading it with Firefox instead of Chrome or Edge, or temporarily check whether your browser’s security settings are causing the block. Don’t disable protection permanently, and verify the download before using it.
