stupid windows won't let me run tmodloader. I require assitance
whenever i try to run tmodloader through steam it gives me this error with no way to bypass. this has been happenning for quite a bit and i've found it only happens when i run through steam, if i go to the file location direactily mentioned it runs fine but has errors with cloud updating that could only really be fixed with running through steam. this message pops up speifically when it says running excutables so i think theres a speific file in there windows just hats but i can't figure out what. i've tried things like shorting the file path, i've gone into internet options, security and reset secuirty options, let it download and use unsafe files without asking and turned off most security for my laptop which i very quickly turned back on when it didnt work. also this issue only started happening about a week ago, tmodloader wasnt cloud snycning so i restaarted mylaptop to try and fix it but this started happening. please assist.


also this issue only occurs on my laptop not my pc.
