If you have a firewall, it's possible a setting in the firewall is the
source of the issue. Most third party firewalls have logs you can check to
see what has been blocked. If you have such third party firewall, you might
check its logs to see if it is the issue and make the appropriate
correction. Note: many security applications including antivirus apps have
such functions so you may have to check those as well.

Make sure you are in an administrator account, not a limited account.

If none of the above applies, open Internet Explorer, go to Tools, select
Internet Options, go to the security tab and try lowering your security
level and see if that resolves the issue.
