I have a strange error that came up in front of me. I am getting an mmc.exe error (MMC is the Microsoft Management Console). When I open services.msc it gives me this error and it says
Your administrator has blocked this service for security purpose". Source: "C:\Windows\System32\mmc.exe" "C:\Windows\System32\services.exe"
What is the correct solution and how to fix this error? Thanks in advance.
This fixed it for me:
Use regedit.exe to navigate to this registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
You have to set the value of "EnableLUA" to "0" (zero). A reboot is necessary.
