Application Compiler app stopped by Windows Defender Smartscreen

Hello,
I've completed an application and created an executable using the Application Compiler. The executable runs fine on my computer, but when I send it to a colleague, he gets the following popup from WIndows Defender SmartScreen. There's a chance that our company's security settings have caused this, but I want to see if anyone here has an idea. FYI, built on Windows 10 64-bit, Matlab 2019a 64-bit.

I am running through the same problem and cant seem to figure it out.
IIRC you get a button 'Run anyway' if you click 'More info'.
Mine has no "Run away" button somehow.

  1. Right click the .exe file
  2. Open the properties
  3. There will be an option "UNBLOCK"
  4. Please click on “unblock” and click apply and then click ok
  5. Try to open file now, it will open now without issue
