I accidentally denied installation of an APK when the warning popped up about potentially unsafe app and now the check always fails and the installation doesn't start. I don't know how to whitelist this app again so it installs.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Settings > Apps > scroll down to Special app access, then Install unknown apps, then enable it for whichever app you denied it for.

Sorry this app steals TV and shows which is illegal and we don't support that discussion here.
