      Anybody got an Idea on how to get a Windows 7 Box to allow me to Turn windows features on and off - logged in as admin, saying admin is blocking it from happening.

      Did you run the add and remove as an admin? Or did you just launch it normally?

      Launched as admin.
      says " Admin has removed Windows Features"

      Okay good, so the current admin needs to remove the rest of Windows 7. . .

        Ha right.
        Yeah That'd fix it.
        but that's not the fix we are going for,
        Could it be a bios setting?

          No BIOS isn't "involved" once the system is booted. Not in any sense like you're thinking.

                What is blocked, the add and remove features?

                It could be a GPO (local) that is preventing you from launching the Add and Remove features functionality.

                        Thanks, but no cigar,
                        features still cant be opened:
                        this is for the installer it looks like.

                            waiting for my cell phone to finish up a System up date...

                            Oh hey! What phone does everyone use here?
                            Recommendations for my next phone? Currently have the Moto Z2 Play.
                            What's the opinions?

                            I currently use the Google Pixel XL, but I think next phone will be the Pixel 3a XL or equivalent. Don't need the high end specs and the price point is good

                              I'm trying to get My Pixel XL to hold together a few more months. I'm going to spring for the Note 10.
