HP ENVY x360 13.3 inch 2-in-1 Laptop PC 13-bf0000 (552D6AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

My computer came equipped with trial version of McAfee LiveSafe and has Windows 11 22H2 Smart App Control turned on.  When I try to download Sonos S2 controller I get the message: "The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation".  According to MSFT, the Smart App Control will block apps that do not have a "valid signature".  I do not understand how a Sonos S2 app (from a well-known brand) would be considered untrustworthy. I don't know if this problem is caused by a McAfee setting or by the Smart App Control function.  Turning off Smart App Control is not recommended by MSFT and cannot be reinstated without a lot of work that I should not have to consider after owning this laptop for less than a week.  

I have the S2 app on my IPhone and also on a MSFT Surface Pro.  I need it on my new HP to play a library of CDs.  What should I do?
