When trying to click on a hyperlink within an email you get the following error;
“This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator.”
you are the administrator of this computer. How can use use these deactivated links again?
This usually happens when there is no default Internet browser (properly) registered in Windows.
To recover, it often is enough to reassign a default browser via;
* Windows 7
Click on Start then select Default Programs
Click on start and then select Control Pane, Now select Set Program Access and Defaults
When you have multiple browsers installed, it sometimes helps to set the other browser as the default, apply the changes and then set your preferred browser as the default again.
If you only have a single Internet browser installed in Windows Vista or Windows 7, you can also deselect all the defaults for the browser by pressing “Choose defaults for this program”, save the changes and then select them all again.
Reset the browser
Depending on your Internet browser, you might additionally need to reset the browser. For Internet Explorer this can be done in Control Panel-> Internet Options. When you use Internet Explorer 6 or lower, you’ll find this option on the Programs tab. For Internet Explorer 7 and 8, you can find this option on the Advanced tab.
For Firefox, open a Run command and type the following (note the spaces);
firefox -safe-mode firefox-safe-mode
In the dialog that pops-up select the option “Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults” and press “Make Changes and Restart”.
