Blender 2.81 installer on Windows 10

Windows say that want protect me and only option is " Don't run " even with all the Windows Security features is turned OFF.

I can't even run it " as administrator ".

Can you guys just make it work without any dancing around?

That’s a task for Microsoft. In the properties dialog of the exe under security tab should be an unblock option. Perhaps even scrolling down and adding an exclusion is enough. Disabling smartscreen is located on another tab ( see screenshot ).

It’s beyond our control currently, this is windows “protecting” you even though we signed the code with a certificate.

You should be able to click ‘more info’ and the option to run anyhow should appear

Hmm … for some reasons it wasn’t obvious for me that " more info " will allow me to run anyway ( it just always show in this window two buttons - run and don’t run ). I thought that it will guide me to some web page in browser so I didn’t even try to click it …

Thanks for info.
