security issues raised by MS Edge and Defender

  • #1, by andrea_visSaturday, 16. January 2021, 14:05 3 years ago
    MS Edge returns a security message when I download the Visionaire Studio 5 Test Version, i.e. "vis-setup-small-5.exe has been blocked because it may harm your device". If I download it via Firefox, the firewall (MS Defender) blocks it. 

    Is this security issue a false alarm or something serious? 

    Please note that my PC runs Win 10  Home version 1903.

    Thank you in advance,
    Andrea

    This is a false alarm. The file is signed so if you open it, it will show that it's signed.
