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.)
