    Access denied for windows admin components


    Access denied for mmc.exe, Device Manager,gpedit on my win 10. Admin is the only user. Error Message:


    "An administrator has blocked you from running this app for your protection"


    Switched the Smart Screen off - no outcome; On elevated command, tried to restore the gpedit.dll - no outcome.

    Hello Wendy,

    To better assist you with your concern, I'd like to know the following:

    • Are you getting any error messages when checking for updates?
    • Confirm the most recent KB update that your computer is trying to install. To check, refer to the steps below:
    • Press Windows key + I, then select Update & Security.
    • Go to Windows Update, select View installed update history.

    Meanwhile, the issue might also occur due to corruption in Windows Update component files. We suggest that you perform the steps in this
    article.

    Also, try to perform the steps below to troubleshoot the "Access Denied" error:

    • Press Windows key + E to open File Explorer.
    • Copy the files that you want to zip.
    • Paste it in the Downloads folder.
    • From there, zip your file. You may follow the steps provided in this
      article      .

    Looking forward to your response.

    Access denied for windows admin components

    net user administrator /active:no keeps saying access denied.

    Hi Rebekah,

    It's possible that you're not using an elevated command prompt, causing the Access Denied error. We suggest following these steps to properly disable the built-in administrator account:

    • Right-click the Start button.
    • Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Copy and paste net user Administrator /active:no and press
      Enter      . If the command isn't successful, please post a screenshot so that we can study it further.

    Let us know if you're able to hide the administrator account after following these steps.
