You might try right-clicking the file, select Properties, and mark it as safe. Sometimes Windows marks files downloaded from the Internet to not allow them to run.

Finally, if all else fails, open a CMD window AS Administrator. Change directory to where the .msi file for calibre is located and run it from the command line. (so, for 8.17, the command line would be:

.\calibre-0.8.17.msi
Yes this. I'm having no issue on multiple win7-64 machines
