Windows 10: Windows Defender seems to be way more strict about file downloads now

Ever since I got a new SSD with Windows 10 on it in December, it feels like Windows Defender is being way too strict on things? For example, before, it would very rarely ask if I am sure about downloading specific files, now everything from League of Legends, to Windows/Microsoft files themselves are being stopped and i have to click "keep" so it downloads. This something new and normal? It's annoying even if it is, and Windows Security doesn't have any options to stop this. I don't think it's normal though. You'd think Windows Security wouldn't ask about Microsoft's files, or files from sites like Riot games, Blizzard, etc with how worldwide they are. Is there some other issue here? Is there a way to stop it? I feel like there are going to issues with any game I download being able to access important things like my Video Card, It's Drivers, my Sound drivers, etc if Windows is being this strict about stuff. I haven't tried yet, but could this happen? I am the Administrator for this PC, so that's not the issue. I am also the ONLY user, so it's not as if it's doing it due to there being other accounts logged to this PC.

Finding .IMG or .ISO file in Windows 8.1 Pro download

Hey guys,

In preparation for my new PC I downloaded Windows 8.1 Pro from Dreamspark, and I wanted to burn it to a DVD, so I can install it on the new PC.
However, in the downloaded files I can't find a .IMG or .ISO file anywhere. I understood that the .IMG file is the one you need to burn to the DVD?

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
