Avast blocked this.

It may not be the case here, but I've been seeing a lot of false positives (Win32:Evo-gen [Susp]) with Avast since their last software update.

Might want to report it as a false positive then cos Avast is very popular (I'm also running Malwarebytes which didn't have a problem with it) :

Hi,
DomainRep is a new feature of Avast, so let me explain a bit. It blocks EXE files downloads if these conditions are *all* met:
1. The file is not prevalent enough, ie. not enough Avast users launched the file yet,
2. The domain is not prevalent enough, ie. not enough Avast users downloaded (any) EXE files from the domain yet,
3. The file is not signed or Avast does not trust the signature.

    • True, but those who claim they plan to run Windows 10 21H2 IoT until 2032 are likely in for a rude awakening. That version is pretty hard to get your hands on, but even if you do, there is no guarantee simply having it installed will grant you updates; MS might only allow updates on properly activated installs. Its also unlikely companies NVidia will keep releasing updated drivers for an OS that no longer has mainstream support.
    • Yes, Enterprise LTSC has changed for 5 years of support. But, one edition still have 10 years of support : IoT Enterprise LTSC (until 2034 for the 24H2).
