This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer
Hi,
when i try to open the clock on the menu bar the message appears:
‘This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator’
This also happens when trying to open my Display picture at the top of the start menu.
Also i can not locate the control panel, it has just disappeared
I suspected a virus but have run norton, and various other apps and none can find anything
whats wrong with it
thank you,
Somebody has been playing with your computer and locked you out of various functions. We often see this with second hand corporate systems where the system admins don’t want people playing with the settings.
To fix it, you are going to log on as an Administrator and change your user log on to being an administrator as well. You may also have to change the Group Policy settings.
None of this is simple and you may have to call in a tech.
