Windows scripting

[Steve]

I am trying to run Silent Runners using te administrator account but when I
double click the vbs file I get a message "Windows Script Host is disabled
on this machine. Contact your administrator for details."


Initial internet reseach produced instructions that helped me track down
that scripting is installed, enabled and associated with..vbs extensions.
The program noscript.exe from Symantic believes it is able to turn scripting
on/off. As best I can tell, scripts should run, yet the above message
continues to taunt me. What am I missing?

Not sure what that means but check that the Reg_DWord

Enabled = 1

found at;

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Script Host\Settings
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows Script Host\Settings

Worked it out after dropping ?mfr=true from you link.

Problem was with the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows
Script Host\Settings\Enabled

Thank you.
