So then I've to go into my downloads folder, right click, properties and "unblock" the file. This is really annoying as sometimes I have a few files downloaded for college work and I've to search through my downloads to unblock each individual one. This wasn't happening a few months ago so why do I have to unblock each file now, and how can I stop this from happening?
