  Whenever I try to open Avira Antivrus and Windows Defender, I get this message: "this operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer.  Please contact your system administrator. "I am the administrator and I have not set restrictions.  It worked, but started recently and I can't find answers.  All solutions?

  Hi I_GHall

   

  It seems that you receive the message you want to software conflicts. I suggest you try to disable either the Avira antivirus and windows defender and then check if the problem resolves.

   

  If you disable any security software for troubleshooting temporarily, so don't forget to activate after troubleshooting is completed that your computer will be at risk.

  Hi Parth1004,

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

  Method 1:

  Start your computer in safe mode

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

   

  Step 2: If the problem does not occur in safe mode, you can put your system to boot (in normal mode) to solve the problem.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

   

  Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to configure the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 provided in the above article.

  Method 2: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

   

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

  Let us know the results.

I like the last two because IE9 periodially breaks down and the others did not. In addition, Chrome is faster for some things like the control off site to purchase.
