I need to run two VBS files from Kelly's site. Windows tells me the Windows
Script Host has been disabled.

Can I temporarily enable this and then disable? Where do I find the switch?

TIA!
 
"Windows Script Host access is disabled on this machine. Contact your
administrator for details."

To enable WSH, open Regedit.exe and navigate to:

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

In the right-pane, delete the value named "Enabled" from the above locations
(if found)

Close Regedit.exe
