IE 11 on Windows 10 crashes with Protected Mode On

I am having an issue where Protected Mode causes certain websites to crash with IE11. I have noticed it on three different websites. Our internal Citrix webpage, GoToAssist's portal, and our Exchange OWA website. If Protected Mode is on, these websites cause IE11 to crash. When Protected Mode is off, the websites work fine. I have only seen this behavior on Windows 10. It works fine on Windows 7. I have noticed this on multiple machines that are both domain and non-domain machines.

I have a Surface RT. IT uses I.E.

Now since Microsoft discontinues I.E. what the HELL are we all supposed to use? RT users are just stuck in a limbo like place and only gets what MS deems worthy. You cant install normal apps due to ARM architecture and are limited to use only those apps supplied in the Microsoft Store. i tried that UCBrowser crap but it is a FAKE app (this is in the Microsoft Store) that uses (calls) I.E so basically it's the same browser.

Since we all are not supposed to use I.E any longer (discontinued) what the hell are we supposed to use?

Didn't think this one through, did you Microsoft?

≪ Previous: Surface RT/Win 8.1 and Internet Exploerer

Hello,

I wasn't sure where to put this question so I took a guess on Internet Explorer.

We have a remote user who is trying to open a training video off of the company's website, it's a wmv file. He has a Win 7 Pro laptop which is connected to the vpn and he is clicking on a link he received in email. IE starts up and brings up a window asking permission to open Windows Media Player. Windows Media Player starts up and then gives a message that it cannot access the file.

We tried manually browsing to the file in the network folder and it opens fine in Media Player that way. I also had him forward the email to me and the link works when I try it, I was on an outside internet connection and signed in to the vpn. He also told me that it's not just this file, he has trouble opening other videos as well.

We cleared the internet cache and also tried it with Chrome and got the same result. I checked with the security guy and he assured me that internal resource like this wouldn't be blocked by the firewall.

I'm not sure how to continue troubleshooting an issue like this, it hasn't come up before now. Help?

I installed IE 11 from Windows Update. The machine had IE 8 before.

When I opened IE 11 for the first time I got the screen that asks if you want to use the defaults. I left that checked and went to the next page where I got:

I clicked on View Certificate and got:

The machine had just been booted.

I also noticed that the TrustedInstaller.exe was using a lot of CPU time.

Any idea why IE 11 Setup is using a Facebook certificate?

≪ Previous: Why Does IE 11 Setup Reference A Certificate From Facebook?

We are using the afore mentioned software and have an odd issue.

A lot of times when we add a site to the list and the export to the XML the rules Ver will not update or it reverts to an older # and we have to select “file, save to XML” several times to get the Ver to update correctly. Example below. Is there a fix for this? OIr is it just a “feature” We would expect that when we add the site and save it and then export it to the XML file that it will increment every time we add a new site? No?

Prevent 'Protected Mode' dialog when opending (edit) a document from an Intranet site

≪ Previous: Is there a memory limit in IE11?

Hi all,

Consider the following scenario:

-You are on a website

-The site is in the Intranet zone

-Protected mode is off

-You access a document library, find a Word document you have access to EDIT, and you click 'Edit' (do not view in Word Web App first)

The result:

-Before Word opens, a dialog box/prompt will be displayed which has the following:

Title: "A website wants to open content using this program on your computer"

Text Body: "This program will open outside of Protected Mode. Internet Explorer's Protected Mode helps protect your computer. If you do not trust this website, do not open this program.

Name (of program trying to open): Microsoft Office 2013

Publisher: Microsoft Corporation

You are then given the option to 'allow' or 'Don't allow'. Click allow and the document opens.

I do not want this dialog to open within the Intranet zone as we trust sites in the Intranet zone.

Does anyone know how to prevent this dialog box? In Group Policy I've gone into Internet Explorer settings - Internet Control Panel - Intranet zone etc. but no setting in there accomplishes this. There may have used to have been a settings which said 'Launching programs and unsafe files' but looks like it's gone?

Thanks.

I have a Windows 7 machine with IE11. It will display yahoo.com as if can not load any images on the page.

I have reset IE back to defaults and does not fix the issue. Other web browsers display this site correctly.
I have uninstalled IE 11 and by doing so the version of IE defaulted to IE 8 which showed the same symptoms. This seems to trail to any subdomains such as search.yahoo and mail.yahoo.

We were using the Site List Manager for a few months and it was working OK. Now that the admin workstation is Windows 10, we downloaded the new Windows 10 version, bulk added the sites from the xml file and then resaved the XML file.

The new format does not work, even for Windows 10 systems. We had to restore a backup copy of the old v1 XML file and use the old site list manager to keep the original XML formatting.

What do we have to change on the workstations to make the new xml format recognized and will it IE 11 on Windows 7 and 8.1 systems recognize this new format?

I have been trying for days to install IE 11. Three Microsoft help desk people could not accomplish the installation. Support articles suggest uninstalling IE 9 which I cannot find. Will uninstalling IE 10 help? Are there hidden IE 9 files and updates? Which are they?

Why is this such a common problem that remains unsolved?

Don't know what to do except pay a ransom to have IE 11 installed. Please make a suggestion that will work.

Web Crypto API with IE11 (AES-GCM)

≪ Previous: Could I clear Icon cache and get refreshed icons without restarting explorer in C++ code?

I'm trying to use web crypto API with IE11 and encrypt/decrypt using AES-256-GCM. Encryption works fine, but decryption with the same parameters fails, without any advice what is wrong:

// key: 32 bytes
// iv: 12 bytes
// auth: 16 bytes
// data: tried 16-10000 bytes; result of previous encrypt
function decrypt(key, iv, auth, data, cb) {
   var decryptOp = window.msCrypto.subtle.decrypt({
      name: "AES-GCM",
      iv: iv,
      additionalData: auth,
      tagLength: 128
   }, key, data);

   decryptOp.onerror = function(ev) {
      cb(ev);
   };

   decryptOp.oncomplete = function(ev) {
      var dec = ev.target.result;
      cb(null, dec);
   };
}

I know that IE11 has an older version of the web crypto API spec. Encryption/decryption with other browsers (tested Chrome and Firefox) with same parameters works. I can't find any examples for AES-GCM decryption with IE11 and the API documentation on https://msdn.microsoft.com/de-de/library/dn302338(v=vs.85).aspx is not detailed enough. If I use AES-CBC I can successfully encrypt/decrypt. What is wrong with AES-GCM?

Did anyone try AES-GCM with web crypto on IE11?

What happens in IE 11 when a site is added to "Trusted Sites?" The more technical the better.

My problem is I have a site that does not rotate the image in IE11 but only when it is added as a trusted site. It works fine in IE8 without. The function attempting execute is rotateImage(ImgDiv)

Hello, I am the owner of the domains <g class="gr_ gr_22 gr-alert gr_spell undefined ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace" data-gr-id="22" id="22">winpack</g>.cf and winpack.eu.org. I would like to have my aforementioned domains included with the HSTS Preload List of Edge and IE. I have already coordinated with Lucas Garron from Chrome (since my servers aren't open 24/7, but only at specific days which aren't predefined) and after a successful manual review of my sites, they were added to the Chrome HSTS Preload List. Furthermore, a Mozilla developer also <g class="gr_ gr_14 gr-alert gr_gramm undefined Grammar multiReplace" data-gr-id="14" id="14">let</g> me know that Mozilla's script for renewing HSTS List runs on Saturdays around noon (GMT), so I can also coordinate with that.

Now I would like to know how the HSTS Preload List Refresh works on IE and Edge. Specifically, are all domains from the Chrome list accepted by default or is there a script or manual check before adding them? If there is a manual review, how can I coordinate with the person that performs it so that I keep my servers open on an agreed day and time? If there is a script review, how does the script work (what does it search for) and when exactly does it run?

Thank you in advance for providing the above information. I hope that you will be able to understand my problem and help me towards fixing it.
