DOWNLOADED COMMON FILING UTILITY FOR AY 2026-27 AND EXTRACTED FROM THE ZIP FILE. AFTER DOUBLE CLICKING, MICROSOFT DEFENDER GIVES A WARNING THAT AN UNAUTHORISED APP IS STARTING. I PRESS RUN ANYWAY AND THE SET UP STARTS AND THEN CLOSES ABRUPTLY. THE UTILITY IS NOT OPENING. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE GUIDE.

THANKS

Quick Summary
Users are experiencing issues launching the Common Filing Utility for e-filing ITR2, with Windows Defender blocking the application. Initial advice to unblock and run as administrator didn't resolve the problem as the extracted file was identified as a Windows Installer package, not an .exe. Further troubleshooting is needed to get the utility running.

The abrupt crash is caused by Windows Security silently killing the program after you launch it. To fix this, right-click the extracted .exe file, go to Properties, check the Unblock box at the bottom, hit apply, and then launch the setup by right-clicking it and choosing "Run as administrator."

Thank you Mr. Sharma for your reply.

The file that is extracted is not .exe file. Its a Windows Installer package.

Anyway, i tried what you suggested but it has the same issue.
