I'm trying to download GMEdit but whenever I try to open the zip, it deletes itself

It all in the title, but whenever I go to download and open the GMEdit zip, it shows up in my files for a split second and the removes itself. I can download and open other games but it wont let me open GMEdits

Is this something downloaded from Itch? Either way, that's usually a sign of an overzealous antivirus. Try disabling it first.

It is from Itch. I tried disabling both my AVG virus protection and windows defender, and it still was being deleted

If you can download and open other programs I'd say it's an issue with GMEdit.

This type of issue is almost always caused by security or virus software. It may have a false positive on the file so it immediately deletes it. If you’re sure that the file is safe you can try temporarily disabling your virus or security software to see if it resolved the issue. If it’s still happening, then you likely did not actually fully disabled whatever software you have on your computer. Hope that helps.
