MRI is a Microsoft program that runs on I think all Windows 10 systems. When you type MRT in the search window, MRT.EXE appears and usually you click on it to execute it. Apparently, you now need higher permissions than “System Admin” to run it.

MRT (Malicious Removal Tool) is a free malware removal tool developed by Microsoft and used on Windows operating systems. It does not use real-time protection and focuses on scanning your computer for malware. Users reported that they received the following error message when they tried to start MRT:

This app has been blocked by your System Administrator. Contact your System Administrator for more info.

It is incredible to see that the software developed by Microsoft does not work properly on their own operating system. There were useful methods that can be used to solve this problem, which has been very well accepted by users, and we have summarized them in an article that you can try!

Enable hidden administrator account

To enable the hidden administrator account, do the following:

• Launch the command prompt as administrator. You can do this by following step 1 of the previous solution.
• When the command prompt starts, type the following and press Enter to execute it:
  net user administrator /active:yes
• An administrator has prevented you from running this Windows 10 application
• Log out of your current account.
• You should see that a new administrator account is available. Log in here.
• Locate and run the application you want to install.
• You should be able to install it without any problem.
• After you’re done, go back to your usual account.
• If you want to disable the administrator account, run the command prompt as in step 1 and type the following:
  net user administrator /active:no

Use the command prompt to install the application.

This is a simple workaround solution that you must use every time you want to install new software on your non-administrative Windows 10 account.

1. Type cmd in the search bar and you should see the prompt in the results list. Right-click and select Run as administrator.
2. You must use the command prompt to find the file you want to run. To do this, type cd followed by the folder in which the application is located.
3. Once you have successfully changed the location of the folder, simply type the name of the file you want to run, followed by the file extension.
4. The file should now work correctly.

Use this method to force the application to run with administrator privileges on your PC.

Run an Elevated Command Prompt

1. Log in as an administrator.
2. Right-click the Windows button and select Command prompt (Admin).
3. Enter the full path of the application in the execution. For example C:\\Dell\\\Drivers\\\24T1W\R235168\Setup.exe.

Turn off Windows SmartScreen

For this solution, you must be logged in as an administrator. If you are in a domain and no administrator is in the domain itself, it will not work. Once you have finished running this program, you should reactivate Windows SmartScreen.

You must find the system and security in the Control Panel. The way to access it is slightly different for some versions of Windows 10. The following screenshot is taken from a compilation that uses the traditional control panel and is for information purposes only.
