From my experience, Windows by default completely blocks non-Microsoft-verified .exes. It's called S mode and usually requires a Microsoft account to exit.
Do you mean that it's enough just to be on a microsoft account? On 10, I didn't technically do anything to exit that and I just have an annoying popup first time I'm using an unverified app. I can just allow them.
You need to "download" normal mode from the store, which requires a Microsoft account to use. All of the W11 computers I've gotten came in S mode.
