    Windows blocking file. Normal steps to fix do not work.


    Windows 10 Home is blocking some official Canon drivers from running. The driver file is an exe. The message is "Windows found that this file is potentially harmful. To help protect your computer, Windows has blocked access to this file."There is no Unblock option in the file properties. Reputation based protection is set to off.Any ideas?

    :)

    How To Block Facebook

    Step 1. Explore C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc.
    Step 2. Look for a file named as hosts, then open it with Notepad.
    Step 3. At the bottom of the file, add the line as shown below:
    127.0.0.1 www.blockingsite1.com
    We have just shown you www.blockingsite 1.com as example only, replace it with the actual URL so that they are inaccessible to all.
    Step 4. Simultaneously if you have more websites that would like to be blocked, just press Enter and repeat step 3 to add additional URL until all desired websites are added. Now make “Enter” at the last line of the UR
    Step 5. Save and close the file.
    After doing the above formalities all websites that you have entered will be blocked with immediate effect. Definitely this theory will help you to prevent certain websites from being accessed by your kids or anybody else for any reason.
