12. You don't have to disable your Antivirus/Firewall if you have one of these two above installed.

• Windows 7 has the Defender Antivirus by default installed, this does not work with Minion. Install Microsoft Security Essentials from 3 lines above!
• If you have any other Antivirus/Firewall installed, UNINSTALL IT and install the correct one mentioned just 3 lines above. Restart your computer once afterwards.
• “But I disabled my 3rd party Antivirus” - Disabled is not disabled. They have several background services still running which can cause problems running our minion products.
• If you stll insist on using your 3rd Party Antivirus, you may try to whitelist your Minion Product or something similiar, maybe it works for a while, but it can stop working at any future point due to updates.
• Always run the Game in windowed mode and not in fullscreen.
• Do NOT install the minion product on your desktop or any other windows related folder.
• DO NOT WASTE OUR LIMITED TIME BECAUSE YOU INSISTED ON KEEPING YOUR 3rd PARTY ANTIVIRUS AND THE BOT DOESNT WORK / CRASHES / NO UI SHOWING UP. THANK YOU.
• Make sure you are running the DX9 version of the game, Minion doesnt support DX11

All our Products / Bots are started through a central Software, the MinionApp.
