Hello. I have an install of win 8.1. IE 11 is frequently going into a weird status, and will then not download pictures, or allow file downloads, and doesn't display most web pages correctly. Not sure if it is attempting to go into a high security mode, but some pages will give a "javascript needs enabled" error.
I have found that if I go into IE settings - advanced and do a basic reset, IE will then work normally for a while, until something happens
I have "protected Mode" enabled through group policy, would this be causing this behavior? and how would I best get this corrected.
