    Cool Restriction Message

    For some reason I am receiving the following message when I try to view a Chart on another sheet: This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please note that I have not placed any restrictions on my computer. Please help!

    Thanks,

    Bob

    Hi,

    Under Tools, Options, Security, is the Macro security the same as yours, or is there any additional settings active in their anti-virus software?

    Let me know any results

    Cool Bryan

    I have checked Excel Security settings and they are set at Medium.

    I disabled Virus Protection [temporarily] and the problem still exist.

    Any ideas????

    I have found the resolve: It is an IE Problem. Open Internet Explorer, go to
    Internet Options. Click on Program and then click on Reset Default Settings.
    Once completed, the problem went away.

    Thank you for your input.

    Re: This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in place on this computer
    Hello: I had this problem for the very first time today when a macro I had written in Macro Scheduler, clicked on a WebSite URL on an Excel WorkSheet. This problem also appears if I manually click on an URL on an Excel Worksheet The error message Excel gave:
    "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." I did a System Restore using a Restore Point from yesterday, and the problem still occurred. I then restored to a 9/17/2012 Restore Point, and that solved the problem. Apparently, a program update within the last few days introduced this problem. Hopefully someone will let Microsoft know. I can't let Windows be updated until this problem is resolved.
    My System: Excel 2010 running under Windows 7. The computer is a Dell D810 Latitude Laptop Computer.
