Windows 10: MS Outlook error message: This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on...

Windows 10 Pro, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Outlook 2010...everything has been running like a top.
Left to run some errands this morning, came back, and now get this Microsoft Outlook error message pop-up whenever I click on a link in an Email.
I get it with either Internet Explorer or Firefox set as the default browser.

All other aspects of the system, office, and outlook work normally...error msg only occurs when I click a link that's inside an Email.

I've rebooted a couple times, etc...no help

MICROSOFT OUTLOOK

This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator.


Any known first hand knowledge / experience on why / how to fix this little annoyance would be appreciated.
Thank you...

Error Outlook 2010 This operation has been cancelled due to restrictio


In Outlook 2010 I click on a link from an email and I get the message This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer.

I tried changing to Chrome as default from Edge, but no solution. This problem only happened after I updated to 1809.

I have tried many suggestions found in Google, but none worked. I hope someone can help!! Running Windows 10 Pro version 1809. This error started after updating from 1803 to 1809.

 

This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions


I've updated my win10 to the anniversary update and faced a problem, when I hit a link in MS Outlook 2010, the following message appears:

This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions

I run a search on the net, set my browser, firefox ver. 50.0.3 64 bit as default browser, MS Outlook 2010 as my default mail program, but nothing changed.
I tried registry corrections suggested in https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/310049/hyperlinks-are-not-working-in-outlook

but the problem stayed.

What else can I do?

 

Operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect

Hi All

I logged on as Administrator on a PC and did a change in group policy to allow certain programs to run for users.

My thinking was that this will not affect the Administrator Account.

Now I want to go back to group policy but then I get the message Operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect.

In fact the message appears for all applications that I did not include in the list.

Help needed in getting to undo this setting.

Thanks
