1268792 2012-04-07 22:44:00 Wainui helped to sort this out the last time I did this (updated CC and again inadvertantly installed Google Chrome). I can't click on things in Outlook and go to the web site - it tells me: 'This operation is canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Etc.'

I looked back at Waiui's reply from last time, but when I go into the Registry - it has changed. I no longer find 'htmlfile' or in fact 'shell'.

I would indeed be grateful for some help in 'sorting' this aggravating problem out! :)

1268793 2012-04-07 23:36:00 Got it fixed. Combination of registry edit and a 'fix' I found online... :) R.M. (561)
1268794 2012-04-08 00:32:00 Chrome has a way of taking over some settings. Good you fixed it :) wainuitech (129)

1268796 2012-04-09 22:05:00 I thought that too! Grrr...:angry R.M. (561)
1268797 2012-04-09 23:30:00 Try here it has all the Ccleaner builds here (www.piriform.com) I always use the slim version as it has no extra stuff with it gary67 (56)
1268798 2012-04-10 00:22:00 I had the same problem recently after I removed Chrome from my SSD to save space.

I found this site. My hyperlinks are now working.

1268799 2012-04-10 00:41:00 Gary - thanks for that. For a number of reasons my head was in the clouds - I usually do better than that... R.M. (561)
1268800 2012-04-10 00:42:00 Bobh - yes that was the site Wainui recommended to me last time. Thanks. :) R.M. (561)
1268801 2012-04-10 01:41:00 It appears that this is quite a common problem caused by Chrome.

I did a bit of searching and found the site and fixed it in minutes. Bit scary letting Microsoft Fixit make changes remotely to my computer but it resolved the problem. Took me a while to refind the web page so that I could post it on F1.
