Question
I'm running an old little app which runs in the browser from local files, and I keep getting the, "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or Activex controls that could access your computer" message.
Is there a registry setting or something I can tweak to allow it to run automatically?
I'm aware of Mark of the Web but it is not practical in this case (neither is running in Firefox, unfortunately).
Solution
Internet Options > Advanced > Security > Allow active content to run in files on My Computer
OTHER TIPS
you need to add the local file system (file://*) to the safe websites in the security settings.
It's in Internet Options > Advanced > Security > Allow active content to run in files on My Computer.
