    - Click OK to proceed.

    - Unzip the files and continue with the installation.

    Helpful Tip! 
    It is recommended that you unblock the zip files on the server from where you are doing the installation (as you cannot unblock and copy the files over).  

To unblock zip file via Windows PowerShell:

  1. Open Windows PowerShell.

  2. Enter the Unblock-File command to unblock the zip file, and press [Enter] to proceed.

    Unblock-File -Path .\Exclaimer.Exchange.TransportAgent-*.zip
