How to disable Security pop ups when opening external files in Access 2010

[dcfi6052]

I have already read the following thread that has a similar issue:
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=117793

It seems a bit dated and the solutions offered don't seem to work for me.

I have a button on a form, when it is clicked it opens a video file located in a folder on the local computer. Each time the button is clicked a security pop up appears that says "Opening file://C:\blahblah\yadayada\File.mp4 Some files can contain viruses or otherwise be harmful to your computer. It is important to be certain that this file is from a trustworthy source. Would you like to open this file?" options are open or cancel. How can these messages be turned off?

I have already played around in the trust center of Access 2010 and changed the "trusted documents", "trusted locations", and "message Bar" tabs with no results. Do I have to play with regedit in windows to get rid of these pop ups? Or can I somehow use VBA code to disable them?They are just a nescience.

Any help would be great.

As I understsand it, technically, the trusted locations, documents, are supposed to refer to other data sources.
Conceivably, one might be able to edit the registry to potentially add extensions to that process, but I have zero idea what key(s)...

Unless you get creative with WSH I don't think you'll be able to manage the messages with VBA.

What app are you using to view the videos?
It might be a long shot, but have you tried to build an instance of that app within your running Access code and open the file programatically within that instance?
if possible, and the messages still happen, you might be able to get an err.number.
If so, you can probably manage the messages then.

have you tried setting the warnings to off?
