Hi @StS the same problem was reported via GitHub last week:

It seems to be a periodic issue with Window Defender and apps built with the nw.js framework.

Are you able to override the warnings and get TiddlyDesktop to run successfully?

o, I’m sorry. There is no possibility to make an exception (no button appear)

This works for me:

run gpedit.msc
navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > File Explorer
disable SmartScreen
