Ah, that's unfortunate but normal: SmartScreen learns what's safe to run in part based on what other folk have downloaded and run without issue. When there's a new installer released, it inherently hasn't been downloaded and run by many people yet, so SmartScreen warns about that. I *think* you can at least reduce the likelihood of getting those warnings by signing the installer, but see, e.g., https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2022-November/252521.html for the problems with that. Otherwise, the only way to avoid that warning AFAIK is to wait until a bunch of other people have downloaded the installer and SmartScreen has learned it's probably safe. (Disclaimer: I work for Microsoft these days, but neither Cygwin nor SmartScreen are anywhere near my day job; I have no inside knowledge or influence.)
