# Threat Modeling Tool update release 7.3.31026.3 - 10/26/2023
Version 7.3.31026.3 of the Microsoft Threat Modeling Tool (TMT) was released on October 26 2023 and contains the following changes:
- Bug fixes
- Accessibility fixes
## Known issues
### Errors related to TMT7.application file deserialization
#### Issue
Some customers have reported receiving the following error message when downloading the Threat Modeling Tool:
```
The threat model file '$PATH\TMT7.application' could not be deserialized. File is not an actual threat model or the threat model may be corrupted.
```
This error occurs because some browsers don't natively support ClickOnce installation. In those cases the ClickOnce application file is downloaded to the user's hard drive.
#### Workaround
This error will continue to appear if the Threat Modeling Tool is launched by double-clicking on the TMT7.application file. However, after bypassing the error the tool will function normally. Rather than launching the Threat Modeling Tool by double-clicking the TMT7.application file, users should utilize shortcuts created in the Windows Menu during the installation to start the Threat Modeling Tool.
