===Disabling Internet Explorer's Enhanced Security Configuration=== | |||
Initially Internet Explorer's enhanced security configuration is enabled. This makes using Internet explorer very painful. It is recommended to temporarly turn off this enhanced security feature with the following steps: | |||
* ensure all instances of Internet explorer are closed | |||
* go to "server manager" | |||
* on the dashboard click "Configure this local server" | |||
* in the "PROPERTIES" panel find "IE Enhanced Security Configuration" and click the "On" text beside it to bring up a window in which you can turn Internet Explorer's enhanced security configuration off for both "Administrators" and "Users". | |||
Then download an alternative browser, e.g. firefox and then re-enable Internet Explorer's enhanced security configuration. | |||
