The new calibre update is a new program and does not have the built up reputation to allow the install without SmartScreen getting involved (if SmartScreen is enabled). If you wait a couple of days, the SmartScreen popup will go away.

To disable SmartScreen, open Settings, click on Update and Security, click on Windows Security, click on Open Windows Defender Security Center, click on App and Browser control. You will see the SmartScreen settings there. Set the Check apps and files radio button to Off to disable SmartScreen trying to block installs or Warn if you want to see the popup which should have the More Info button to get to the second popup with the Run Anyway button to allow the install.

As usual, if you are using a corporate machine, them nasty IT folks are likely to have blocked your access.
