Is Windows 10 blocking one of your apps? Use this guide to disable the SmartScreen on a per-app basis.
On Windows 10, SmartScreen is a security feature that guards your device and data against outside threats. When enabled (default), it automatically identifies and stops apps that may include malicious code that could harm your device.
Just like SmartScreen for websites, the feature sends information to Microsoft, which is checked against a dynamic list of reported files. If there's a match, the filter will alert you and prevent the app from running.
