Unable to Access Exchange Management Console 2010

Recently I was on a new client’s server and I accessed the Exchange Management Console for Exchange 2010.  When expanding “Microsoft Exchange On-Premises”, I received the following error message:

In order to get around this, you must look at the Security Group called Organisation Management.  Check the membership of this group, and ensure that the user account you’re using to open up EMC is within this group.  In this case, my user account hadn’t been added to this group which was why I received that error message.

After adding my user account to the group, I clicked Retry within EMC, and it worked perfectly for me.
