How to Restore ActiveX


1. Try resetting your web browser. To do so, go to the IE Reset web page (see link in "Resources"). Scroll down the page and click "To reset Internet Explorer automatically" to expand it.
2. Click the "Reset Internet Explorer settings" link under "To reset Internet Explorer automatically" and click "Save." Download and save the resetting tool on your desktop. Double-click the resetting tool and click "Run."
3. Click "Reset" in the "Reset Internet Explorer Settings" dialog box. When IE finishes applying the default settings, close and restart your web browser. Resetting your web browser restores ActiveX controls and other components to their default state.
4. Re-enable ActiveX. To do so, click the "Tools" menu on your browser and click "Internet Options." Click the "Security" tab.
5. Click the "Custom Level" button to launch the Security Settings window. Scroll down and click the "Enable" radio button under "Run ActiveX Controls and Plugins." Click "Enable" under "Script ActiveX Controls Marked Safe for Scripting."
6. Click "OK" to save the changes and click "OK" again to close the Internet Options.
