I tried to downlaoded the new version 2.1.2 but chrome / windows said theres a virus in there?

If you download it from the itch.io app then it lets you download

But im still concerned abt the virus message

Windows is just being Windows.  It's over-concerned about nothing. This doesn't mean you should never trust it though, it's just not very reliable. Use sites like Virus Total or something else to test it.

Hello! Widows, says it, because the .exe file was not "verified". Meaning: It was created by a third member, who microsoft does not know about. So windows is just telling you: Hey! I don't know who made this program, and what it does. Are you sure you want to run it? It can be a virus or something... But if you thrust that program, then you can force execution. To be safe, you can do a scan with the windows defender antivirus, to check if the file is "infected" or not.

Hey, but chrome doesnt even let me download it. It gets INSTANTLY deleted after download by windows or chrome im not sure here. But its gone. The older version ARE possible to download and no warning at all...

just disable the windows defender while you download it
