While you can click on "see full history" to display all items that the security program quarantined, you will notice right away that the buttons to remove or restore files are missing there. What you can try is clear the history, and retry the download. It happens that you get a failed download due to the detection of a virus, but no immediate listing under quarantined threats.
The whole process of unblocking files that you want to download that Windows Defender blocked is complicated and to a degree broken.
Why are not there options to remove or restore files in the full history, why do I need to click multiple times to find out more about a threat, and why are not threats listed sometimes in the main interface where you can restore them?

To try to prove a false positive result suspected OK, run against another antivirus application. Windows Defender since day 1, and still is, the worse ever security application.

You must be signed in as an administrator or you should request administrator rights to be able to stop downloaded files from being blocked. From there, type "Regedit" and click Enter. A User Account Control prompt will pop up. When this prompt appears, click the Yes button to continue. If the Attachments key is absent within the Policies key, you'll have to create it. To do this, right-click on the Policies key, click New , click Key. These files might be harmful to you computer Your internet security settings suggest that one or more files may be harmful.
