False reporting from Edge browser

The edge browser marks the MIDI Services SDK as dangerous file. How does this happen? It is a legal and safe download as far as I know.

    Edge's SmartScreen filter can sometimes be overly cautious and flag legit files as dangerous, especially if they’re not widely downloaded. If you’re sure the MIDI Services SDK is safe, you can bypass the warning by clicking “Keep” in the Downloads tab. You might also want to report it as a false positive to Microsoft so they can fix it in future updates.
