Cannot Run Program / Apps / Applications within J drive

Question

Why can't I run my program within the J Drive?

Environment

  • J Drive (Network Drive)

Information

Effective May 2nd, 2024, security protocols block the execution of applications directly from network drives. Users attempting to run software from these locations will receive a system message indicating that the action is prohibited.

Answer

To run your program, please download and move the application files directly to your local computer (e.g., your Desktop or Downloads folder) instead of attempting to run them from the network drive.
