  1. Curious about "An Administrator has blocked you from this app" was fix with windows update


    Few day ago, when I was trying to access the "Create Partition" Just managing my disk partitions. it gave an error message of an Admin has blocked access.

    Then, I went on the web to find a solution. And found one that works but it requires to use the Registry Editor. But there is a problem with that, because it completely disables the UAC and this makes me concern. Literally, every app that I have that use to have a UAC prompt just doesn't have the pop-up anymore.

    The solution was used in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gjf0PxhGU0U


    Just yesterday, I went and check my windows update, there are some updates needed to be downloaded and installed. After being done installing the update, the blocking mysteriously disappeared and everything was working as it was before.


    Was it a windows security countermeasures or some sort? I actually thought that my computer was going to have a problem when I see that "An Administrator has blocked you from this app".

    :)

    App Blocked by administrator

    I cannot open MYOB, a message comes up that the app has been blocked for my protection. It says to contact the administrator. All help suggestions show sections that do not show up on my control panel

    Windows update issues

    It works, but I still need to fix it so that way I dont have to plug computers directly to the modem to get windows update to work. It was also blocking me from installing directx.
