Tested on 3 Windows 11 machines today, and working. Unable to reproduce message.

Looks like Windows Defender is probably blocking it. Turn off Defender and it will work. *I've seen this error before on systems that users have done improper removal of Windows Defender. Usually under reputation-based protection

But my system doesnt have defender i have removed it allready

@PitchAbyss Just in case you made the same mistake I did:

You cannot right-click the hyperlinked .exe and "Save as." You need to click the .exe and "View Raw." That will download the full executable.

When I did "save as" I got the same exact Smart Screen popup.
