# English Version

Some mining software requires system-level drivers such as **WinRing0x64.sys** to access hardware resources and improve mining efficiency.

Because of this, antivirus software may mistakenly identify these files as malicious and automatically delete them.

To ensure proper installation and operation:

1. **Temporarily disable your antivirus or firewall** before downloading the mining software. This prevents the installer from being removed automatically.
2. After installation, **add the installation folder to your antivirus exclusion list** to stop real-time protection from deleting or blocking the miner’s files.
