Dealing with Windows 10/11 Smartscreen warnings

Select the "More info" link in the dialog to display:

You will see that it says the the Publisher is unknown. Click the Run anyway button and the installer will start.

Alternatively, open the folder containing the installer, right-click on Mstat80-setup.exe and choose properties. Then check the box Unblock in the Security section of the dialog. The setup program will now run without the above warnings.
