Setup Guide - Wimberton/OriginPalia GitHub Wiki
Welcome! This guide will walk you through setting up the loader, preventing antivirus interference, and solving common issues. Please follow each step carefully.
✅ Step 1: Disable Antivirus Software
Antivirus programs, including Windows Defender and third-party tools, may mistakenly flag the loader. This is a false positive. The loader is 100% safe.
Disabling Windows Defender:
- Press
Windows + I
to open Settings. - Go to Update & Security > Windows Security > Virus & Threat Protection.
- Under Virus & Threat Protection Settings, click Manage Settings.
- Toggle off Real-Time Protection. Confirm if prompted.
- Under Exclusions, click Add or Remove Exclusions and add the folder where the loader will be placed.
Disabling Third-Party Antivirus:
- Open your antivirus program (e.g., Norton, Avast, McAfee).
- Find settings like Real-Time Scanning or Active Protection.
- Temporarily disable it and add an exclusion for the loader’s folder.
- Save and exit the antivirus software.
Important: Once the loader is successfully set up, you can re-enable your antivirus to stay protected.
📥 Step 2: Download the Loader File
- Go to the Downloads page using the official link on the website.
- Find the correct loader file for your game.
- Click the Download button.
⚠️ If your browser shows a warning about executable files, click Keep or Download Anyway.
Only download from official sources to stay safe.
📂 Step 3: Extract and Organize the Loader
- Locate your download (usually in the Downloads folder).
- Right-click the file and choose Extract All, or use tools like WinRAR or 7-Zip.
- Create a new folder (e.g.,
C:\GameLoader
). - Move the extracted loader and any other files into this folder.
Keeping the loader in its own folder and creating an antivirus exclusion helps avoid confusion or deletion.
▶️ Step 4: Run the Loader and Launch Your Game
Launch Your Game:
- Start the game as you normally would.
Run the Loader:
- Open the folder you created earlier.
- Double-click the loader
.exe
file. - Allow any prompts (Windows may ask for confirmation).
- The loader will start — wait a few seconds for the main interface.
