Hi all,
I have checked related threads to the below error message but have been unable to resolve the issue using suggested fixes. On one of the pcs on the network i administer a message appears when trying to install a printer or connect to a printer on the print server.
The message says:
"This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator."
The only account on the pc that can install a printer/connect to a printer on the print server is the local admin account. I have checked the local user profile settings on the machine and my own personal account is set to full admin rights. I have checked group policy manager to ensure that there are no rules set to prevent installing/modifying software, which there aren't. Obviously I have full admin rights on my personal account. Moreover, the machine is running Microsoft XP and this is the only machine that is experiencing the problem. The message/error only seems to prevent the adding of printers.
Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions
