From download to first course

Four straightforward steps.

The installer is digitally signed. Windows may still pause on a new, uncommon download while its reputation builds.

  1. 01

    Download

    Save Useful-Course-Class-Manager-Setup.exe from this page.

  2. 02

    Check the publisher

    If your browser or Windows shows a warning, confirm the publisher is Useful Software & Systems Limited.

  3. 03

    Install

    Open the installer, choose the destination and follow the Windows setup prompts.

  4. 04

    Start the trial

    Launch the app and create an empty database, explore example data or reuse an existing setup.

A warning you may see

New download. Verified publisher.

Microsoft Defender SmartScreen considers both the publisher and how commonly a particular file has been downloaded. A newly released, correctly signed installer can therefore be described as unrecognised or uncommon while its reputation develops.

Only continue when both checks match.
  • You downloaded the installer from downloads.usefulsoftware.co.
  • Windows identifies the publisher as Useful Software & Systems Limited.

Depending on your browser and Windows settings, you may need to choose Keep or Keep anyway, then More info and Run anyway. Do not continue if the source, filename or publisher is different.

This file is not commonly downloaded

That describes download reputation; it is not the same as a failed digital signature.

Check the file yourself with PowerShell

Open PowerShell after downloading the installer and run:

Get-FileHash "$env:USERPROFILE\Downloads\Useful-Course-Class-Manager-Setup.exe" -Algorithm SHA256

The result should exactly match the SHA-256 value above.
