We’re moving past the old, messy workarounds. I’ll show you exactly which files to drop into your directory for a clean setup and—more importantly—how to properly whitelist the trainer so your Antivirus stops deleting your files.

This is the most stable way to get your trainer running without unnecessary folder bloat.

In this video, we cover:
