- After launching, the aividlab blue triangle icon should appear on the left side of the app's main window
. - The app opens on the "Downloads" tab by default — paste a video link to test it.

Notes
On Windows you usually don't need to run any commands. The SmartScreen warning can be dismissed with a single click on "Run anyway".
If you want to get rid of the SmartScreen warning entirely (optional), run the following in an administrator PowerShell:
Unblock-File -Path "C:\Users\<your-username>\Downloads\aividlab_*_x64-setup.exe"
This command only applies to the installer you just downloaded and is meant for local verification only — it is not the same as "code signing".
Uninstall
In "Settings → Apps → Installed apps", search for aividlab and click "Uninstall". Downloaded videos are not deleted — clean them up yourself in your downloads folder if you no longer need them.
FAQ
-
White screen or no window after launching? This is usually caused by an outdated WebView2 component on a Windows install that hasn't been updated in a while. Go to the official Microsoft page to download the latest WebView2 Runtime.
-
Chinese text shows up as boxes? Under "Settings → Appearance → Font", switch to "Microsoft YaHei UI" or "Source Han Sans".
