If you're not running a third-party antivirus software you will be running Windows Defender and it will block all.
You're going to need to download a anti-virus software

I recently installed Windows 10 Fall Creators Edition...Did it by making a dvd iso using the Media Creation Tool and did a clean install...
Ever since, when I download a program (ex: VLC MEDIA PLAYER or GOOGLE CHROME) as soon as I double click it, this message pops up:
"YOUR ORGANIZATION USED WINDOWS DEFENDER CONTROL TO BLOCK THIS APP"
I have Windows 10 home edition installed...How can I get it to stop blocking these legitimate apps?
