Windows 10: An Administrator has blocked you from running this app mmc.exe

Dear Community,

Recently, I got an Error which prevents me from opening Device Manager, Computer Managment and etc.



My Windows 10 Version is Home 1903.

I am using HP Laptop but I don't know does it matter. I am the only User(Administrator) in this laptop.

But I am still avaliable to run these programs through Command Prompt (Run As Administrator).

I tried to Restart Laptop and it didn't help.

I tried to Turn off SmartScreen options but still it didn't help.



I don't know what to do with this. Can you help me to find a solution?

Thank You

:)
