"This program is blocked by group policy." #369

Closed Multiverse-Cat closed 8 years ago

Multiverse-Cat commented 8 years ago

I have been trying to build the client.dll for the sp episodic mod (as release instead of debug) using the games.sln but I get 8 errors in visual studio 2013 professional seemingly related to the $PreBuildEvent. When I try to go to the folder where the dll should be located I find a log

I notice the "This program is blocked by group policy. For more information, contact your system administrator." but I can't find where it could be blocking it. I was suggested to come here and submit it as an issue.

UPDATE: I have loaded a clean install of windows 7 and set everything up in there and it compiled correctly. so it's definately a windows problem. if you feel that this should be closed because the code is technically fine then go ahead.

I have been able to fix it. it appears I somehow got a setting that wouldn't allow it to run, I'm not quite sure what fixed exactly but the problem wasn't with the code, visual studio, or even windows 10 itself. it was some kind of setting I had and therefor shouldn't even be brought up here. Sorry if I bothered anyone.
