[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 745894, member: 32260"] This can happen if the user: [LIST] [*]did not bypass the SmartScreen alert by choosing 'More info', [*]cannot bypass the SmartScreen alert because of non-default SmartScreen settings, [*]has non-default settings in Apps & Features which allow installation of apps only from Microsoft Store. [/LIST] ConfigureDefender is whitelisted by Windows Defender signatures but not by SmartScreen, yet. If you have non-default [COLOR=rgb(0, 168, 133)][B]SmartScreen settings[/B][/COLOR] in the Windows Defender Security Center, then change them to [COLOR=rgb(0, 168, 133)][B]Warn[/B][/COLOR] - this will allow you to bypass SmartScreen alert.
