 +When you run any application (not just //Git Winch//) that you have downloaded from the Internet, Windows would usually block it. In many cases, Windows would pop-up a dialog of this nature. You will have to click on //**More info...**// link in the dialog. On clicking that, you will see the button to run the downloaded application. In case of //Git Winch// we are very sure it does not cause any harm. But you must take ample caution before running any application downloaded from the Internet.
