Whenever I try to use the Stop Project block in V5 and try to download the program to the brain, I get this compile error:

CompileErrorMsg
CompileErrorMsg1233×679 38.7 KB

If you can’t see the attached image, here’s what the error says:

windows build for platform vexv5
This program is blocked by group policy. For more information, contact your system administrator.
make: *** [vex/mkrules.mk:11: build/src/main.o] Error 1
make process closed with exit code : 2

Thanks for any help.

I think VEXcode switches over to using C++ when that block is used as programStop was not available in the Python SDK, I think is changing with the next release of VEXcode.

The message is saying that your PC is locked down and cannot run the C++ compiler, contact your IT department.

Thanks for the reply.

And what should I tell my IT dept they need to do?
