BC125AT: BC125AT drivers

[OGRE01]

Probably incorrect subforum use, but no permission yet to post elsewhere, so here we go.

I'm trying to find drivers (Windows 7 specifically) for a BC125AT to operate the Uniden scanner programming software . The links to drivers on Uniden's support site are dead (I get it, its an old model). There are apparently pertinent links on this thread, though locked for replies.

BC125AT: - BC125AT Help

I have purchased a used BC125AT scanner and I fully realize that it is a "dated" scanner. Therefore, much of the information online is also dated. I am using Windows 10-64 version and the "old" information references suggest needing a driver for Windows 7. Of course, I do not have Windows 7...

forums.radioreference.com

Basically, there is a "drivers" zip file, but when downloaded, my computer gets very upset and reports "file not downloaded, security risk". Visually the link appears correct, but I'm at work and can't risk messing up this machine. Can anyone verify that this link is valid?

I'm just trying to set up programming on the computer, though I'm getting pretty quick at manually modifying on the scanner itself. I (unfortunately) do not have a bunch of specific stations to listen to in my home location, but adding a bank with specific stations to where I might travel would be convenient.

Thanks all.

Maybe @JoeBearcat could fix this? Going to the following page, none of the downloads work. (note, that page is what scanner master has linked)

BC125AT < UnidenMan4 < TWiki

info.uniden.com

Now while on that page, If you click the first link, the webpage address changes to the following and the links work.

http://info.uniden.com/twiki/bin/view/UnidenMan4/BC125AT

@OGRE01 if you download from the second link, all those zip files are from Uniden and should be safe for download.

Thank you. Got them successfully from that first link with no issue. Now just need to remember to bring the radio in with me tomorrow. Have to make a pickup at the local airport this weekend, will probably take the kids early and listen to some ATC communications.

On windows 10 it was just plug it in and it worked. At a point in time windows stopped allowing some drivers to installed that werent signed.
