    Which button in which web page? What action is supposed to ensue when you click it?

    That message in principle is primarily intended for users of a company PC where a group policy (one or more of a particular set of registry changes).

    These changes might be applied by registry changes you have made, perhaps by a tweak tool, or if Win 10 Pro via the group policy editor.

    Do you have Home or Pro?

    Pro. The most recent instance is when I tried to open this: Puzzling which is your
    post.
    I have made no GP or Reg changes.

    And thank you for your reply.

    From that I take it that this message occurred as soon as you clicked on a hyperlink somewhere.. presumably in an email?

    See:

    Which is your default browser?

    Dave,

    I agree with dalchina. I also do not understand where you are taking the action of clicking on something & exactly what that thing is.
    - It seems to me that you are referring to clicking on a hyperlink in an email using MSOffice Outlook*** for which that dialog appearing is a known problem. But you mentioned clicking on a button so I'm confused.
    - Perhaps a screenshot of the running application & the thing you are clicking on will help to reduce uncertainties.

    *** If my interpretation is correct then take the action explained in this other thread

    Best of luck,

    @Dave Win -

    Hi. Do you have Notepad++ installed?
    If so, please uninstall it, reboot and test.

    If not, Have you tried a Repair on Outlook?

    I looked at my Outlook settings and I think that I went OTT in ensuring that I turned off the usual frills and removed a few more. That few more was the fly in the ointment

    I put them back on and that fixed it.

    I am sorry that I wasted your time

    Dave,

    You have not wasted anybody's time. Your solution might, in fact, be useful for future victims.

    So the problem did happen when you clicked on a hyperlink in an MSOffice Outlook email?
    - If so, why did you refer to a button?

    I would be interested in knowing which Outlook Options you had changed.
    - I'd like to keep a record of them for reference if anybody else reports the same symptom as you. I appreciate that you don't know which individual change caused / resolved the problem.
    - Your problem has been reported before but nobody has mentioned changing Outlook Options. The 'normal' successful solution is a Registry change that is not related to Outlook Options.
    - A similar one has also been reported before. It shows a different error dialog when clicking on a hyperlink in an Outlook or other MSOffice application [it refers to "restrictions are in effect"]. Its solution is also a Registry change that is not related to Outlook Options.


    All the best,
    Denis

    That's good! However do you have Notepad++ on your system?
    I noticed two references to that which corresponds to your problem.

    Just curious.
