    User Account Control Error


    When I attempted to install my one of my printers on my new PC, I received 'This app has been blocked for your protection. An administrator has blocked you from running this app. For more information, contact the administrator.' I am the administrator and the only person using the PC. The other printer installed without any problems.

    :)
