⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE: When downloading our counter-strike 1.6 installation files, you might see warnings because these installers are sometimes new and not yet widely recognized by Microsoft.
This does NOT mean the file is dangerous. It’s completely safe – it’s just not commonly downloaded yet, so Windows is being cautious.

Follow the steps below, as shown in the screenshots:

Step 1: Windows Protection

When you double-click the installer, Windows might show this blue screen saying:
“Windows protected your PC”
Don’t worry! This is normal.

👉 Click on “More info”

Step 2: Allow the Installer to Run

After clicking “More info”, you’ll see two buttons.
👉 Click “Run anyway”
This tells Windows you trust the file.

Step 3: Choose Installation Folder

Now the setup will begin. You’ll be asked where to install the game.
You can leave the default location or choose your own.

👉 Click “Next”

Step 4: Ready to Install

You’ll see a summary of your install settings.
👉 Click “Install”

Step 5: Installing… 

Wait a few seconds while the game installs. A loading bar will show the progress.
