I spent hours trying to install QPDF on my computer (Windows 10) just to see this. Is QPDF bad for windows or is this some technical error? How can I fix this? Because I badly need to edit some pdf files. Screenshot saying, "Windows protected your PC.")

As long as you trust the program, cou can click on More Info and let Windows run the application. If you are not 100% sure, you can always scan the whole program folder with any anti virus software, but keep in mind that not every virus can be 100% detected.

QPDF has an github repo where you also can review the code in any case. If you downloaded QPDF through a reputable source than the probability of an infected Programm is low.

But keep in mind, that any installation should always happen in C:\Program Files. If you want to run the program more quickly you can link it in system32 but it's not recommended.
