Yes, Windows 10 tells me the official FPC installer contains a virus and dually deleted the download (without giving me a choice). I downloaded from SF.net.

The other issue being that the official FPC installer can't be run under a non-Admin account under Windows. I don't have admin access on my work laptop. Thanks to Michael van Canneyt for telling me about the Inno Setup 3rd-party unpacker tool.

Hence I had to manually bootstrap FPC 3.0.2 and 3.0.4 on that system.

Windows just isn't fun. Long live FreeBSD and Linux.
