Windows 10: Windows SmartScreen is Blocking Every Download

My Windows 10 Pro SmartScreen setting is blocking every single download. Even downloads from Microsoft.com and it does not give me any option to “Download Anyway” as all the advice sites are saying. How do I fix this and still have security? I should not have to turn it off every time or why bother having it as a setting. Please Help. Thank You.
