Good Morning to All,
Laptop is a toshiba (rather old one from 2016) with Win 8.1.
Run Eset and after a update Eset dissipeared. I can see it in programs and if I want to click on repair I get this message. Also windows update stopped. Seems somewhere a setting was changed.
Error Message--- user installation is disabled via policy on this machine
Any help would be much appreciated. I use my old desktop here now.
Much appreciated.

Hello,
Thank you for that. I looked at it and it seems something is blocking me from installing the tool. I keep getting the same responce as I try to follow the advice. Can something maybe changed in the directory.?
Much appreciated.

Are you signed in and running the tool as Administrator.
Problems like this can be caused by a couple of things, a bad update, incorrect removal procedure and having more than the one AV are three things that come to mind, if we can`t sort this here we will have to ask a security expert to take a look, they have specific tools for such problems whereas us techs do not.
You are welcome btw

After restarting your computer, try to install Eset again and see if it resolves the issue. If you continue to experience problems with Eset or Windows Update, it may be a good idea to run a full system scan with an up-to-date anti-malware program to check for any malware infections that may be causing these issues.

All help much appreciated.

Put linux on the laptop that had Windows 8.1 as 8.1 no longer receives security updates. Backup any personal data first including bookmarks.
A couple of suggestions
