Windows defender application control

[Amaan_2]

I removed windows 10 and installed it again using the media creation tool. At first I installed the Windows 10S by an accident and therefore could only access apps from the store. But I decided to redownload the pro version of windows 10 and continue to get the following error when I open a download from the web, access cmd or regedit and many other things:
Your organisation used windows defender
C:\Users\amaan\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\TempState\Downloads\OriginThinSetup.exe
Contact your support person for more info.

Your organisation used windows defender application control to block this app

and yes i did choose to download windows 10 for personal use and not for an organisation.

I beg for help ASAP plz!!!!!

if you installed it recently, just try doing a reset and it should fix this error?

go to settings/update & security/recovery
choose reset this PC
If its as new PC you shouldn't have much to lose now so choose wipe all.
PC will restart and reinstall win 10 - hopefully fix this

Other choice is just do a fresh install and choose custom, wipe all partitions and make sure no trace of Win 10 S
boot from installer
follow this guide: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/1950-windows-10-clean-install.html

when you reach the screen asking for licence, click "I don't have a key" and win 10 will continue to install and reactivate once finished

On the screen where you choose where to install win 10, if it gives you an error about GPT drives, delete all the partitions on the hdd and press next. If it still gives error, cancel out of the installer and restart PC and start installer again, it will accept next on that screen this time (some PC just need a restart here)

I already tried resetting windows numerous times but that didn't work. I have 2 drives and I only erased the drive where window was installed, I didn't erase the other drive. Could this be why I'm getting the error??

No, that would have no effect.

Fresh install using custom appears to be your best choice then. You should only have 1 drive in when installing win 10 as it can sometimes put its boot partition on another drive if it sees space there. I would unplug 2nd drive from power before doing the clean install.

If this happens again, try disabling Secure Boot in BIOS.That seems to work for many users.
