    Group Policy Settings - Blocked Downloads


    First, I wish to thank you guys for this very awesome board, I know I will have fun learning all the stuff I do not know already about computers, tweaks, and what not.

    My Question, and forgive me for putting it here, I had no idea where else to put it, I thought about tutorials, but I know this isn't even an option in win7, I assume it will be moved if needed, by the admins, and thank you, for understanding.

    "this file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer"

    How in the dickens do I hack the registry or what ever I need to do, to prevent files from being blocked upon downloading them?
    I do a lot of downloading and what not, and its frustrating having to manually them, every single time.

    Please understand, I already have a hack "take ownership" installed in my right click menu, to preform muti-files at once.

    What I desperately need, it to stop them from being blocked from the beginning, so I don't have to unblock them afterwards.

    I assume this must involve a Group Policy hack of some sort?

    Thanks in advanced.

    Thanks, but all that is for it to prevent the warning box from coming up, it doesn't solve my issue.

    Thanks anyway for trying

    Welcome lmao4u to our Forum.
    The information Golden has posted are Tutorials. They are not hacks. Hack is a nasty word.

    Fat32?


    I believe that you can get around this by saving your files to a drive/partition that isn't NTFS formatted (e.g. FAT32).

    However, it is a security feature that is supposed to remind you to check that you are running a legitimate file and not something that saved itself to your PC without your knowledge/permission.

    couldnt agree more, but if I am the one who is saving it, the computer should let me do it freely and let me have my own choice to turn off the feature to begin with.

    Whats to come of microsoft next?

    Spying is more profitable than blocking

    I think that a flag is automatically created when the file is saved to a NTFS partition.

    Better than that.

    They have filed a patent, which describes how they can use Kinect to spy on you.
    This would allow them to report you to the MPAA (presumably for a nice bounty).
