Security settings prevent all downloads

I can't download Microsoft software because of my security settings.  I can't download anything, including the windows installer because my security settings see them as harmful to the computer.  I did everything suggested by the help windows, but apparently not good things.  What should I change?  At the beginning I had some success downloaded from Safari, but now, even the last program was blocked at the end of the download preventing installation of your own program.  Mystifies me.   Any suggestions?

Hello

·         What exactly happens when you try to download?

·         Are you facing problems with the download of Internet Explorer as well?

·         You receive an error message when downloading?

·         Security are what you referring?

 

You can try to Disable Antivirus software and firewall on the system temporarily and check if that helps resolve the issue.

Note:

Disable Antivirus software and firewall is a potential threat to the system, I suggest you to activate their return once you have completed the troubleshooting steps.

If you receive the error message: your current security settings do not allow this file to download. When downloading then this problem occurs because the Internet Explorer file download option security zone is set to disable.

To allow downloading files option refers to the procedure described below.

(a) open Internet Explorer.

(b) press the Alt key and then click on tools in the menu bar.

(c) select Internet options in the menu drop-down.

(d) click the Security TAB , and then select Internet in the area select it to view or change security settings.

(e) now, click on custom level, new windows will appear where you need to scroll down and look for the option to download the file, you must select enable radio button then click Ok and restart Internet Explorer.

If the problem is related to the safety of guests UAC then I suggest to check the link below and check if that helps resolve the issue.

  • Unable to open these files. Your Internet security settings prevented one or more files being opened.

    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit with UAC disabled

    Hello

    I turned on my computer this morning and all of a sudden all _ broke loose. Everytime I try and open an exe file I get a security alert box Windows telling me that:

    "Unable to open these files. Your Internet security settings prevented one or more current files opening. »

    I read through every thread I can find on the subject, and none of the "answers" worked for me.

    I tried the common next 'solutions' with no luck:

    (1) right click on the exe, click Properties
    Click the Unlock button
    Click OK

    (2) adding exe to the control panel > Windows Defender > Tools > Options > excluded file types

    (3) start / Control Panel / Internet Options.
    (Displays control panel Internet Options)
    Click the security"" tab.
    Click "Local Intranet".
    Drag the slider to "Low".
    Click the 'Sites '.
    Click on the button "Advanced".
    Enter the IP address of the NAS / SMB / CIFS / some server and click "add".
    Click "close".

    (4) delete the registry key - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderTypes\{EF87B4CB-F2CE-4785-8658-4CA6C63E38C6}\TopViews\{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}

    (5) create a profile admin completely. -This one was interesting, when I logged on the account there was no aero theme - he went immediately to the essential.

    So any ideas?

    I had not mentioned in my HKCU registry entry. I solved the problem by resetting all my settings IE. If something in Internet Explorer is the cause.  In fact, which fixed the problem for every user profile on the machine.

  • Indicates the security settings will not download. Have you tried to reduce

    My pc runs slowly.  I tried to download patches from the internet and even Microsoft.  Error message says that my security settings will not download.  Tried lowering settings but it does not work

    Dave

    Hi Dave,.

    ·         You use Internet Explorer? If so, what version are you using?

    ·         Are what patch you referring?

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    ·         Have you been able to download anything earlier?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: Perform an optimization of the article Internet Explorer if you use Internet Explorer.

Reset the Internet Explorer settings can also reset parental control settings. We recommend that you note these sites before you use the reset Internet Explorer settings.

  • Page rotation script does not (not allowed error security settings prevent access to this property)

    Hello

    I use a script to rotate each pages in pdf format by clicking on a button. I added a script to rotate the file in the click event of the button turn as a javascript. It works in acrobat, but not in adobe reader. Please see the script

    Start = 0;

    nEnd = this.numPages - 1;

    nRotate = 90;
    Try
    {
    If (this.numPages > 0)
    {
    this.setPageRotations (start, nEnd, nRotate)
    }
    }
    catch (e)
    {
    App.Alert ("processing error:" + e)
    }

    But I get this error in adobe reader not in acrobat. "not authorized error security settings prevent access to this property or method". What is the problem. Please someone tell me.

    OK, so here's what you do:

    -Create a new file in a plain-text editor (I recommend Notepad ++) and paste this code:

    safeExecMenuItem = {app.trustPropagatorFunction (function (code)}

    app.beginPriv ();

    app.execMenuItem (code);

    app.endPriv ();

    });

    mySafeExecMenuItem = {app.trustedFunction (function (code)}

    app.beginPriv ();

    safeExecMenuItem (code);

    app.endPriv ();

    });

    Close the player if it was open and then save this file as "MyScripts.js" and place it in the following directory (this is for Windows):

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\Javascripts

    If you want it to run as well in format Acrobat place the file also less:

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Javascripts

    Now to rotate the page clockwise attach this code to your button (in Acrobat, of course):

    mySafeExecMenuItem ("RotateCW");

    And to turn them counterclockwise, use this code:

    mySafeExecMenuItem ("RotateCCW");

    Open your file in the player and the buttons should turn pages when you click on it...

  • All of a sudden I can't open attachments to emails. I get a message that the 'security settings' do not allow. Where are these settings and who put?

    I use TWC (Time Warner Cable) as my server e-mail and Firefox as my browser. I went to my emails and has attempted to open an attachment and got an error message stating "security settings prevent the download file. Well, I contacted TWC, Norton and my PC settings. It seems that Firefox is the problem! If I use another browser ie: Google and go to my email account, I have no problem. I remember recently that Firefox did a download of updates and this may be the cause of the problem.

    Thank you for your private message with the error text: "your current security settings do not allow this file to download."

    Firefox partially integrates with Internet Explorer security settings for download purposes. You can realize your Internet Explorer settings to the 'Internet' zone by following the steps described in this answer to Microsoft forums:
