Windows SmartScreen Notice
Windows may show a "Windows protected your PC" warning. This is completely normal and happens with all new software that hasn't yet been registered with Microsoft. SQLFlow Pro is 100% safe — it runs entirely on your local machine and never sends your data anywhere.

After clicking "More info", you'll see these buttons. Click "Run anyway" to start the installer.
Why does this happen? Windows shows this for any new software that hasn't built up download reputation with Microsoft yet. It's not a virus warning — just a caution for unfamiliar apps. Major apps like Discord and VS Code showed this same warning before they were widely adopted. Once you install, this only appears once.
