Hi,

 

Running Windows 10 and have just been switched over to Broadband.

 

I live in Australia.

 

Since the switch or for some unknown reason I get a Security Warning when I open or view a photograph.

 

As I work with hundreds of photographs it is taking me longer to get some work done.

 

Help

 

Regards

Just uncheck box "Always ask before opening this file", should help.

Hi,

 

Back again.

 

I tried all of the above but somehow the computer is not helping.

 

After getting the Security Notice yet again I checked on FRST64.exe and found that the Unblock had cleared itself.

 

I re- did it awaiting developments.

 

Regards
