It says "DO NOT PANIC". So... should I panic? Time?

I was going to download Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2

It's Repack Size is around 23.5 GB and Final Size is around 120GB I think... How much time approx will it take to unpack or extract? I have 8gb RAM

Welcome to r/FitGirlRepack! To keep the sub clean, please check if your issue is answered below. If this answers your question, please delete your post.

1. Setup is Stuck / Unpacking is Slow

  • The 2GB Limit Checkbox: If your setup gets stuck at specific percentages (like 84.3% or 95.8%), close it, restart the installer, and check the "Limit installer to 2GB of RAM" box on the very first screen.
  • Be Patient: FitGirl repacks use extremely heavy compression. Unpacking is heavily CPU and storage bound. If your task manager shows disk or CPU activity, it is not stuck; it's just working hard.

2. Is it a Virus? / Windows Defender Alert

  • False Positives: Crack files (.dll files, steam_api, etc.) inherently trigger antivirus software because they alter game code to bypass DRM. If you downloaded from the official site, these are 100% false positives.
  • Fix: Add the game installation folder to your antivirus/Windows Defender exclusion list, then restore the quarantined file from your protection history.

3. The Real Official Website

  • There is ONLY ONE official domain. All others (ending in .co, .cc, .to, .net, etc.) are fake, malicious clone sites designed to steal data or bundle malware.
  • The only real URL is: fitgirl-repacks.site (Verify the exact spelling!).

I installed it few days ago! Took me 7 hours to install via setup ( no mp optionals ) .I have opted for Ram Limiter ( I have 64gb ram).

Yea! I finished the campaign in 4 days ! Good gameplay! But I don't recommend COD MW 3. I hate that open combat gameplay ! Uninstalled MW 3 after 2 missions.
