Verify & Install

FuzeOBS is new software — your OS may show a security prompt. This is normal.
Here's how to verify it's safe and get past it.

Why does this happen?

Windows SmartScreen and MacOS Gatekeeper flag software they haven't seen before. It's a reputation system, not a virus scanner — new apps trigger warnings until enough users have installed them safely. Code signing certificates cost $175–400/year, which I plan to add as FuzeOBS grows.

1

Download the installer

Click the Windows download button on the main page. Your browser may show a warning — click Keep if prompted.

2

SmartScreen popup appears

You'll see "Windows protected your PC" with a message about an unrecognized app. This is expected for any new software.

Windows protected your PC

Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting.

Click "More info"

It's a small text link below the warning message. Clicking it reveals the Run anyway button.

4

Click "Run anyway"

The installer will launch and FuzeOBS installs normally. You only see this once per version.

1

Open the .dmg file

Download from the main page, open the .dmg, and drag FuzeOBS into your Applications folder.

2

Gatekeeper blocks the app

Double-clicking shows "FuzeOBS can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer."

"FuzeOBS" can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.

3

Right-click → Open

Find FuzeOBS in Applications, right-click (or Control+click) and select Open from the context menu.

4

Click "Open" in the dialog

macOS asks one more time — click Open. You only need to do this once; future launches work normally.

1

Download the .deb package

Grab the Linux installer from the main page.

2

Install via terminal

Open a terminal in your downloads folder and run:

sudo dpkg -i FuzeOBS-Installer.deb
3

Fix missing dependencies (if needed)

If the install reports missing packages, run this to resolve them:

sudo apt-get install -f
4

Launch FuzeOBS

Run from your application menu or via terminal:

fuzeobs
No security warnings on Linux — you're good to go.
