i have redshellSDK.dll
do i delete it anyways
Honestly, I'd rather do the host file way of blocking it.
If you just delete a .dll, you're just going to end up forgetting about the whole ordeal. You're going to end up downloading another game or program that has it, or the game will update and restore the file or something.
Editing the host file is pretty simple.
Open a plain text editor as an administrator, like notepad++, go to open
Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc (you may have to show hidden system files)
open the file called hosts (it doesn't have an extension)
add these lines to the bottom of the file and save (if you didn't open the program as an admin, this will give you an error)
0.0.0.0 redshell.io api.redshell.io
0.0.0.0 treasuredata.com api.treasuredata.com
Head over to
redshell.io to test it. If it doesn't load, that means this worked.
