It has fixed the issue. Thanks!

how do i know this isn't a virus?

Очень хорошая работа, большое спасибо за это.

how do i know this isn't a virus?

It isn't a virus. Scan it using VirusTotal and find it out.

Kaspersky keeps flagging it as malicious when I try and install, offers to disinfect and then deletes the file without it finishing. how do I fix this?

Here's screenshot evidence of it doing this btw

It works great!

What are the chances of adding Borderless Window support? I love using this program on a second monitor, but having to alt+tab everytime I want to move my mouse to a different screen is crazy.

I can understand if that is a limitation, however. Just curious. ;)

It's because you have too many music/movies and it overloads the app while trying to download all of the metadata for them. You can fix this by disconnecting your internet, going to "WMC (while disconnected of course) > Tasks > Settings > General > Automatic Download Options" and unchecking "Retrieve CD album art, media information for DVDs and movies, and internet services from the Internet" and reconnecting to the internet.

Try adding the WMC.exe to the Windows Firewall's Outbound connections and restrict all of it's outgoing connections disconnecting it from the internet. At least that's how I did it, I just said "disconnect the internet" because that's easier to do but you can give this a shot too.

sadly it doesnt work
