This is an interesting twist. I just tried to download the newly published 26.00 7-zip manager (from 7-Zip), which failed because of "Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.H!ml" detection, also reported on the Eleven forum.

No mention of SmartScreen on my side.
It was blocked before landing on my drive (using Chrome, not Edge) even before trying to execute and SmartScreen could kick in.

In addition, I have Edge uninstalled.
