If you are seeing a popup from Windows saying Windows protected your PC with a big Don't run button, click on More Info and you will get the install option. This basically says that Microsoft has not seen the number of installs by other people to block this message. See attached image.

Windows 11 24H2 Virus and Threat Protection does not report any issues with the file.

I used VirusTotal and 4 of the 69 scanners reported an issue. Those 4 were Avast, AVG, Bkav Pro and Skyhigh (SWG).

Microsoft, Palo Alto, BitDefender, Sophos, etc. did not report any issues.
I do not use SmartScreen. I find there's no need for it.
