How to fix this error?

In the SAP GUI Security dialog, always click ?Allow?. You can also check
?Remember my decision? to avoid getting this dialog every time the SAP
3D Visual Enterprise Structure Manager is launched.

Settings would have to be changed to provide ?Execute? access to the SAP
3D Visual Enterprise Structure Manager ActiveX control. To do this,
follow the steps outlined below.
+,,Open SAP GUI Options Dialog (Press Alt + F12 and select ?Options?
from the menu).
+,,Select Security - Security Settings from the options on the left of
the dialog.
+,,Click on ?Open Security Configuration? button.
+,,In the list of rules, check the rule for object
?SAP.VE.VSM.VsmServerWrapper.1?. Ensure that this rule has ?Action? as
?Allow? or ?Ask?. It can be edited by clicking on the ?Edit? button.
Press ?Ok? on all open dialogs.
+,,Re-launch the SAP 3D Visual Enterprise Structure Manager. If the
?Action? in the above step is maintained as ?Ask?, click ?Allow? on the
SAP GUI Security Dialog as above.
If the system still fails with the launch of SAP 3D Visual Enterprise
Structure Manager, the installation of SAP 3D Visual Enterprise
Structure Manager on the client system was not successful. You can
contact your system administrator for re-installation.
