Hi @recherd ,

Considering that your Lenovo laptop is still new , have you checked if there are any pending Windows updates? If yes , kindly download and install them first and try to install the Trend Micro Antivirus again.

Let me know if this works!

Thank you for your question @davevt31.

Hi @recherd,

Kindly check the version of your operating system so we can have an idea if the installer is compatible or meets the system requirements.

Alert...Problem Solved

When I looked up Windows Version I discovered that Windows was in "S" mode so it wouldn't allow any apps not verified by Microsoft to be installed. Switched out of "S" mode. Download worked just fine. Thanks for your interest in helping.

@recherd​ Yep, figured it had something to do with the "S" mode.
