### Getting Started

#### Disable Windows Defender

<details>

<summary>Why do I need to do this?</summary>

You need to disable your antivirus because it can block cheats or loaders from running correctly. Antivirus programs often flag cheat software as malicious because it modifies or injects code into games to enable features like aimbot or ESP which appears abnormal for a file to do. This is a common issue for all game cheats, not just Arctic Cheats. Rest Assured, Arctic Cheats is safe to use.

1. Disable **Virus & threat protection settings**
   1. Search "Virus & Threat Protection Setting" in your windows search bar
   2. Click "Manage Settings"
   3. Disable all settings here, including "Real-time protection"

<summary>Why do I need to use DControl?</summary>
