@mikesweeney is the author of the Timestep tool, hopefully they will have a solution.

It looks like you might have some kind of security issue opening timestep.exe. There’s some info on the homepage for how to permit access (https://michaelsweeney.github.io/time...) , but if you still can’t get it to work you can email me and I’ll try to help.

@mikesweeney i clicked exclude process and it allowed the program to work. I was apprehensive about this given the current cyber threats in the world.

Totally understandable. The program hasn't been updated in a couple years so it's possible there are some older modules that are being flagged as security vulnerabilities. I will take a look and see if there's anything I can do on my end.
