Set up Aegis

Four steps. About five minutes.

Create your account and start your subscription on the pricing page. The same email and password will sign you into the app.

Download and install

Download Aegis for Windows and run the installer. Windows may show a blue screen that says it protected your PC. That appears because Aegis is a new app from an independent developer. Click More info, then Run anyway. The install itself does not need administrator rights.

Sign in and turn on protection

Open Aegis and sign in with the account from step 1. The app checks your subscription and unlocks. On the dashboard, click Enable system-wide blocking and choose Yes on the Windows prompt. You only do this once: it lets Aegis block sites across your whole PC, even when the app is closed. Browser filtering works without it.

Add the browser extension

The extension hides AI labelled content inside Chrome or Edge. Until the store listing is live: open chrome://extensions, turn on Developer mode, click Load unpacked, and choose the resources\extension folder inside the place you installed Aegis. By default that is C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Local\Programs\Aegis\resources\extension. It unlocks by itself once the app confirms your subscription.

If something looks off

The confirmation email has not arrived. Give it a few minutes and check spam. The link inside lands on this website; after confirming, go back and sign in.
The extension says it is locked. Open the Aegis app, go to Account, and press Refresh status. The extension unlocks within about 30 seconds.
The app says system-wide blocking is off. On the dashboard, click Enable system-wide blocking and choose Yes on the Windows prompt. If you chose No before, just click it again.
A site you blocked still loads. Restart your browser. Browsers sometimes hold on to old connections for a while.
