If you have Pro, you can do this through group policy:

learn.microsoft.com

Available Microsoft Defender SmartScreen settings

A list of all available settings for Microsoft Defender SmartScreen using Group Policy and mobile device management (MDM) settings.
learn.microsoft.com

Keep in mind it is a good idea to leave this stuff on.

I want it through registry (just running .reg file).

understood. I don't know of any way through reg personally, but I found this:

Try step 4 from here:

www.makeuseof.com

How to Enable or Disable the SmartScreen Filter in Windows 10 & 11

Toggle Windows' SmartScreen filter on and off in a few clicks.
www.makeuseof.com www.makeuseof.com

That's a local machine key so might apply to all users.....but not certain.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System

locate the EnableSmartScreen filter value. You will need to create a new value if no value is found. Set to 0
