  1. I have blocked an app from being able to access the internet and cant change it back.


    I was trying to load up a game that I wanted to play. I was asked if I wanted an app to be able to have access to the internet and because the notification didn't mention what app it was I pressed yes and blocked it. When I tried using the game I was notified that I should check my internet connection although the connection was fine. I then realised that the app I had blocked was the one I was trying to used. I have searched up how to allow applications to have access to the internet but I have found nothing that helps. All ideas and replies will help and I am grateful to anyone who helps.


    Here is a screenshot of the pop up.

    Internet accessible only through IE

    As the title says it only IE can access the internet. It's on my laptop with a wireless connection. The system was affected by virus and some permissions are still blocked. I'm positive that maximum of the virus is gone. How do I restore permissions like changing security center settings? No other browser is able to access the internet.
