Blocked by Group Policy message after Reinstalling OS
Hello,
I've just got my computer back after reinstalling Microsoft OS, and I'm currently installing my old programs. However, some programs/functions are blocked by group policy/admin. It seems like the policies may have been modified by default when the OS was reinstalled.
I am the owner/admin, personal home computer, private network, not part of domain.
I've tried some methods mentioned in other threads such as running as admin, changing security policy to prompt for credentials, checking blocked programs in AppLocker.
There is one method I've been looking into before using, which is going into regedit and deleting some registries, but I've read that deleting the wrong file can wreck the OS. I'm hesitant about this because I'm not very proficient with computers.
Are there other solutions to this issue?
If not, perhaps someone could provide advice on how to modify registries.
