When I run Grim trainer. I get user is banned

Please disable/uninstall all antivirus, firewall and other security software including browser addons and extensions. Right click "Run as Administrator" on trainer and game. Plug your PC directly into the internet, bypassing all network routers and firewalls. If you have been using VPN software such as Spotflux, a complete windows reinstall might be necessary as some of these products mess up Windows firewall registry settings which cause the trainers to be blocked.

I right clicked on the game and ran as administrator. However, when I right click on the exe file for the trainer, I am NOT given the option to run as administrator. I can only click on open or unzip and a few other irrelevant options. If I click on open, I get user is banned error. Any suggestion?

By the way, I read your prior response. I don't have the option to plug directly into internet. I am not near the router and do NOT use a VPN since I am home.

You need to fully extract the trainer files from the archive before trying to run.

Thank you PW wizard,. I did have to remove the exe file and right click on it separately. However, trainer still doesn't work. I click on F1 key and only get one "trainer activated." Nothing happens after that. Maybe it is because I have win 7.

No sure, something could still be blocking it from injecting into the game.

Please disable/uninstall all antivirus, firewall and other security software including browser addons and extensions. Right click "Run as Administrator" on trainer and game. Please note that some security products may still block access to trainer injection even when disabled and must be completely uninstalled. If this is the case, please contact the product vendor for instruction on the proper way to prevent the trainers from being blocked by their software or find a better alternative.

or

Extract trainer and make sure trainer/launcher/editor is in a folder excluded from virus scans. Empty quarantine folder if needed or set anything trainer related (paths and EXE's) to ALLOW. Disable any Live/Active/Real-Time tools which may trigger false positives in security software that may terminate the game/trainer when it's activated or options used.

may need to be added to exclusions as well. Click and select "Run as Administrator", read the instructions and try again.
