An annoying Internet Explorer popup

If you have been working in GPMC from RSAT on your Windows 10 workstation, then this section is not for you. You won't be having this problem!

Internet Explorer is locked down by default on any Windows Server operating system with something called Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration. By simply clicking Close, you can proceed past this message and see the Settings information, but that gets old in a hurry.
