Try this' Click on cog top right hand corner Internet Options, then Advanced tab. Click on Restore Advanced Settings, OK. Restart computer then try loading.

Many thanks Brink for the info, but the real reason for my concern is Why was the performance report blocked in admin command prompt? For many years I have built my own desktops and each computer was named in my case "Computer with my name" Having now bought an MSI Gaming laptop it would appear...

Trying to perform an Admin Command Prompt ie- perfmon /report, I get an unobtainable response, see attachments. Having used option 1 to give me full permissions. again without success. Any suggestions would be appreciated
