How To Bypass The 'An administrator has blocked you from running this app' Warning Message In Windows 10

The Windows 10 operating system is aggressive in protecting users from suspicious or potentially malicious software. In general, this is beneficial, however, it can also prevent installation of software deemed by users to be safe. This situation produces an error message stating: 'An administrator has blocked you from running this app' or 'This app has been blocked for your protection'.

The Windows error (more like a notification) prevents users from downloading and/or installing applications. In earlier Windows versions, this error message was generated from installed anti-virus software only, but now Windows includes the built-in Windows Defender and UAC (User Account Control) software responsible for keeping users safe from potential threats. The 'An administrator has blocked you from running this app' error means that the system is preventing you from running a suspicious installation (setup.exe) file that could infect the computer with malware or other viruses. If you are not sure if a setup file can be trusted, we recommend that you do not ignore this warning message.

The message could appear even when attempting to download or install legitimate software, such as hardware drivers. In this case, it can be frustrating and will limit your actions. Fortunately, there are ways to avoid this warning. Read the guide below and try out the solutions provided.

It is recommended to run a free scan with Combo Cleaner - a tool to detect malware and fix computer errors. You will need to purchase the full version to remove infections and eliminate computer errors. Free trial available.

Disable Windows SmartScreen Feature

First, we recommend that you disable Windows SmartScreen (officially called Windows SmartScreen, Windows Defender SmartScreen, and SmartScreen Filter), a cloud-based anti-phishing and anti-malware component included in several Microsoft products, including Windows 10. It determines whether a downloaded app or app installer is potentially malicious by checking downloaded files against a list of reported malicious software sites and programs known to be unsafe. It also checks downloaded files against a list of files that are well known and downloaded by many Windows users. If the file is not on that list, SmartScreen shows a warning advising you to take caution. This feature might be responsible for the error you are seeing and is preventing installation of the app. If this is the case, disable SmartScreen and see if the error persists. To disable SmartScreen, go to Search and type 'smartscreen' and click the 'App & browser control' result to open it.

In Windows Defender Security Center, select 'Off' under 'Check apps and files' - Windows Defender Smart screen will no longer protect the device by checking for unrecognised apps and files from the web.

NOTE: You will need to provide administrator approval to proceed. When you have finished, try to install the app again and see if the error still appears.

Alternatively, check if the particular file (a setup file) is blocked. Locate the file, right-click it, and select 'Properties' from the contextual menu.

Now, find the 'Security' section in the General tab and check the checkbox next to 'Unblock' - this should mark the file as safe and let you install it. Click 'Apply' to save the changes and try to launch the installation file again.

Run The File Using Command Prompt

Command Prompt is the input field in a text-based user interface screen, a command line interpreter application available in most Windows operating systems. It is used to execute entered commands. Most of the commands are used to automate tasks through scripts and batch files, perform advanced administrative functions, troubleshoot and solve certain kinds of Windows issues. In early days of computing, Command prompt was the only way to interact with the computer, so a simple set of commands with rigid syntax was used to perform system functions. Command Prompt's official name is Windows Command Processor but is sometimes called ​the command shell, cmd prompt, or even referred to by its filename: cmd.exe

To use Command Prompt, you must enter a valid command along with any optional parameters. It then executes the command as entered and performs whatever task or function it is designed to perform. Some commands available in Windows require that you run them from an elevated Command Prompt. This means you have to be running it with administrator level privileges. If you try to execute a command that requires administrative privileges from a normal Command Prompt, you will receive an message stating that you must be an administrator running a console, or that access is denied and you do not have sufficient privileges. To avoid 'An administrator has blocked you from running this app', we recommend that you try to run the installation file using the elevated Command Prompt. To open it, type 'command prompt' in Search and right-click the 'Command Prompt' result, and then select 'Run as administrator' from the contextual menu.

Locate the file you want to install and go to its Properties (right-click the file and select 'Properties' from the contextual menu). Then, enter its location in Command Prompt and type the exact file name. In our example, it would be 'C:UserstestDownloadswlsetup-all.exe'.

Press Enter to execute the command and see if this solves the problem and overrides the 'An administrator has blocked you from running this app' warning message.

Use Hidden Administrative Account

To successfully install your desired application, you might need to use the hidden administrator account. To use it, launch Command Prompt as administrator and type this command: 'net user administrator /active:yes'.

Now sign out of your current account and then sign in to your administrator account again. Locate the file you wish to install and install it - see if you still receive the 'An administrator has blocked you from running this app' warning. If you wish to disable the hidden administrator account, type the same command with the 'yes' replaced with 'no' ('net user administrator /active:no').

Check Your Antivirus

Zoosk Blocked By Administrator

Some users have reported that they receive the 'An administrator has blocked you from running this app' warning message because their antivirus software prevents them from running and installing certain applications. If you are using any third-party antivirus software, make sure that the associated settings are not blocking the application. If you are not able to find these settings, we recommend that you simply disable the antivirus software (temporarily)and see if this is the cause.

We hope that these methods were helpful and you are now able to install your application without receiving the 'An administrator has blocked you from running this app' warning message. If you know of other methods to solve this problem not mentioned in our guide, please share them with us by leaving a comment in the section below.

maybe i'm hopeless, but I can't make anything work. I run Win10, I don't see any off the screen you show.
I can't find SmartScreen, I don't see blocked box at Egenskaber. No matter how form the words on cmd it says it's not a command. I have Avast installed, does this block on it's own. https://uploads.disquscdn.c...

This is the driver I try to install.
How do I formulate it in CMD?
Thank you

cmd prompt did not work on AllSharePCSW.exe as none of your other suggestions

Thank you. The CMD Prompt method worked for me. Hope this is not a permanent fixture on Win10.

This is not right way to resolve blocking executive files for install

The command prompt worked for me as well, thanks a lot

Zoosk Administrator

Thanks for your post. I think you meant ClassicStartMenu -upgrade which worked for me.

Running from an administrator command prompt fixed it for me. (blocked exe was ClassicShellMenu -upgrade on startup). Thank you very much indeed.

The 'Command prompt' worked for me, thank you a lot :)

I wanted to use the 'run as administrator' on a Domain Work Station, and recieved the message 'An administrator has blocked you from running this app' I used this registry hack to allow it:
HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesSystem Change ConsentPromptBehaviorUser to a value of 3

This almost worked. I have a Samsung Ativ Book 9 and was unable to install the update software after reinstalling my OS. Ultimately what I had to do was:

* Control Panel
* Windows Security
* Exploit protection
* Exploit Protection Settings
* Program Settings
* Add Program to customize
* Pasted in the name of my program ('sw_update.exe')
* Selected the following options:

> Override system settings
+ On
+ Allow thread opt out

> Disable extension points
+ Override system settings

> Disable Win32k system calls
+ Override system settings
++ On

> Do not allow child processes
+ On

> Export Address Filtering
+ Override system settings

* Apply

I was FINALLY able to run my app.

Just ran into this issue today, and the cmd prompt solutin worked! Thank you very much!

i disabled this few months ago. i couldn't use the app today. The error message was this 'An administrator has blocked you from running this app' i spent more than 10 minutes with this keyword. couldn't find a single solution.
had an idea and searched how to disable your phone on windows 10. google found this page. now i was able enable it again.

Running the file from a command prompt solved the problem. Disabling SmartScreen didn't do anything any 'unblock' checkbox under the file properties

I tried everything on here, but still get that annoying message.

I can't run programs as administrator (Because Of This Problem) or even not as administrator
FOR ALL MY EXE FILES
PLEASE HELP!!!
