Hello,

If Smart Screen blocking is occurring in a closed network environment for an EV code signed executable file, here are a few steps you can take to handle it:

Add the executable file as an exception: In a closed network environment, you may have control over the security settings. You can try adding the executable file as an exception in the Smart Screen settings. This will allow the file to run without being blocked by Smart Screen.

Disable Smart Screen altogether: If adding an exception doesn’t work or is not feasible in your network environment, you can consider disabling Smart Screen temporarily. However, keep in mind that disabling Smart Screen could expose your system to potential security risks, so it should only be done if you trust the source and integrity of the file.
