"Windows Script Host Access is Disabled on this Machine" Error

[Head Hurts@discussions.microsoft.com My Head Hurts]

Since my last update, I tried to install my new Lexmark Printer 2300 and
receive this error trying to run the installation software.

Windows Script Host Access is Disabled on this Machine. Contact your
administrator for details.

I had checked the knowledge base and cannot find this exact error or
problem. I have run the software from the hard drive after I thought it might
not allow script access from the cd drive, but same thing.

any ideas???

Hi My Head Hurts,

Here is a TechNet article for disabling Windows Script Host:

Look for the registry entries mentioned in the article and either set the
Value for Enabled to 1 or delete the Enabled value.
