7 Zip Blocked By Group Policy

I don't know where or how or why this restriction is in Group Policy (are you on a domain network or is this a sttand-alone computer or only hooked up to an ad-hoc home network). If connected to a domain, the restriction may be coming from the server in which case you need to talk to the server administrator to figure out why it is there and if it can be removed.

If it is a home network or a stand-alone computer, then you access Group Policy Editor by going to Start / Search Box and type in Group Policy Editor and then double-click on the program icon that apppears. You will now be in the Editor. Here's the problem - there's no way to search the editor so you need to essentially check every entry to find the one that's blocking you. On my system, no policies were in place by default so I'm not sure how yours got policies put in place - but if it says Group Policy is the cause this program is where the solution lies. I wish there was an easier way, but I don't know of any.

Sometimes security software blocks programs using Group Policy so it's possible that's how this happened - unfortunately, it doesn't help us find the location of the block so it can be removed.

Dec 21, 2015  Windows 7 Security https. If they just click the icon and do a normal execute they receive the message 'Program blocked by Group Policy'. They are on a domain, however, there have been NO changes to any of the group policies AND no other users are experiencing the issue despite the fact all the users are contained in the same security group. What is Group Policy and This Program is Blocked Error? All the recent versions of Microsoft Windows including Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1, and Windows 10 have a utility installed by default which is called Group Policy. It is mainly used by network administrators for enhanced security. This program is blocked by group policy. For more information contact the system administrator. I logged into the Windows 2008 DC to see if the policy is been enabled. But i cant see the group policy management under administrative tools. I thought it could be a local group policy enabled on the client.
