When you try to download the app? From https://www.rainmeter.net/? I don't think. So, what are you trying to download?

Yes, but NoblemanPlatypus talked about a problem when he tried to download Rainmeter, not when tried to install it:

Although (as I said) I can't believe he got that message when he tried to download the app, it's not clear at all what is going on...

I'll bet you a dollar the problem is Controlled Folder Access. It has nothing to do with "downloading" Rainmeter, he is just conflating "downloading" with "installing".

Good point. Probably you're right, I assumed the same thing in the first moment.
