Flash restricted running scripts or activeX controls

Hey, can someone give me a hand?
I read in a different, older forum, that said to use "" but how do i put it
into my flash projects?
If this is not what i should use then what should i use to
remove the sign "flash restricted running scripts or activeX
controls" that pops up when i run the flash on my website.

I thought that only happened when running flash
locally.

IE 11 Restricting Running Scripts and ActiveX Controls on Local Files

I have been coding for my MediaWiki pages and needed to test these pages with IE 11. However, whenever I open a file in IE 11, an annoying message saying "IE 11 Restricted this website from running scripts and ActiveX controls." How do I do a
one-time fix to stop this from happening in future to local files?

to test your WEBSITE.... publish it to a web server. eg. localhost/test.local

Need to disable script or ActiveX control in WebHelp project

Two of our WebHelp projects display the following two
messages prior to loading the first page:
1) "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has
restricted this file form showing active content that could access
your computer. Click here for options."
2) "It seems javascript is disabled in your browser, please
enable it abd reload again, or click here to view without
javascript."
I don't know my way around well enough in RoboHelp to solve
these problems. I've read that you can disable the ActiveX issue
through options in the Windows Control Panel, but that is not a
valid resolution for these customers, as that will pose security
vulnerabilities. Not sure either about how to enable javascript, as
indicated in the second message.
Obviously there is something in these WebHelp projects that
cause these messages to display. I want to address the issues at
the project level - not the OS level. Is there a way to search a
WebHelp project foe embedded ActiveX controls and java scripts that
may cause these messages, and then figure out a way to change this
behavior?
I am using RoboHelp HTML, version 5.0.2, build 801, and
generating the primary layout as WebHelp. I've played with the
Preferrred Format options when I generate the project, but nothing
has solved the problem yet.
Any suggestions? Help! This novice is stumped.

After installing Flash Player 11.8, other ActiveX controls prompt to reinstall

I'm on Windows7 64-bit using IE9. After installing the new Flash Player 11.8 on 8/5/2013, other ActiveX controls prompt to be reinstalled repeatedly. I tried disabling the Shockwave Flash Object add-on and also tried uninstalling Flash Player, no change.
I then uninstalled IE9 and reverted back to IE8. Everything was fine until the Flash Player 11.8 installed and then same problem in IE8 with getting ActiveX controls reinstalling again.
I reinstalled IE9, but still same issue so it has not reset anything after going up to IE9 again.

Hello Comvel.
RE:
Hello,
i haven't fixed it yet.
I've deployed the last few version of flash player without any problems.
I haven't found any new things in the admin guide.
The plugins don't show up in both browsers. I can't enable them.
On the most importent clients, i've installed flash player manually.
I know it has been a few months since your post but, I was wonderingif you were able to find a solution for this that didn't involve manual installations. I've recently deployed 11.8.800.175 and am running into the same problems. Some work stations are just fine. But others, (both windows 7 and xp, all IE8) are not working. When navigating to a site like youtube, theres a banner that says update is needed. When you go to manage add-ons there is no shock object/add on.

Trying to install flash player 9 with out activeX controll???

i deleted something to do with xp and now i got no flash player and no activeX controll and my internet is running with add ons disabled and i cnt turn it back on.....so how do i download flash player 9???????????

It's very difficult to help you when we don't know exactly what you did / deleted.
If you deleted something that is part of Windows, then you can try to run the System File Checker
Start -> Run -> type sfc /scannow [Enter]
This will replace all missing or corrupt system files; you will need your Windows install disk for this.
Another thing you can try is a System Restore to a date before your problem started.
Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Restore
Do you have any particular reason why you want to install the old version 9 of Flash Player? You can download it from this page (the installer you will need to run is flashplayer9r159_winax.exe).

Flash player 10.1 Help ( ActiveX control and Download manager)

I've been trying for several hours to download the new flash player 10.1. I tried everything in the FAQ and still nothing. I tried un-installing the older version that I had (9.3.3),   and still nothing.Then when the download manager gets to the end of the download, it keeps saying Error: Installation failed but Adobe Air was still able to download so the problem is obviously flash 10.1. Then it tries to finish installing it and when its done it says that it couldn't register ActiveX control and that error 19166 occured. I already enabled ActiveX so I dont know what the problem could be.
Help would be appreciated and could someone explain what error 19166 is and how to register or install activex
ps. I had this problem a while back but somehow I was able to download flash version 9.3.3, so even if I can't download 10.1, can someone give me a link to download version 9 instead.
System information: Windows 7
                              Internet explorer 8
                              32-bit
                              Norton 360

Thanks for your reply.I've tried/done everything on that page and I'm still having issues. And I've already disabled Norton and windows firewall and still nothing works.

ActiveX Control Problem

When I Generate Primary Layout and View Results I get my
project in a browser (IE7) and a message telling me that IE has
restricted the webpage from running scripts or ActiveX controls. I
have to Allow Blocked Content to see my finished product properly.
I am using the BeautifulVistas-WH-Generic skin, but I don't
see that until I Allow Blocked Content. Prior to that, I see a more
generic looking skin. All add-ins are enabled, and my security
settings are set to low. How can I avoid this?

Sounds like you are viewing webhelp locally without Mark of
the Web inserted. That will not happen to the end users as they
will view the help from a server.
You can either add MOTW or set IE to allow the blocked
content if you want to view it locally.

The activex control for flash player could not be registered. Please help!

Can't install flash player. Keep getting activex control for flash player could not be registered. I have tried all of the solutions provided on this forum. Running windows 7 32-bit running IE8.
Please help.

Hi, Did you use the Administrator Account? If you received that message it is usually a Permissions Issue.
We have had several reports this past week of a Virus(AntiVirus8 or AV8) that can set a Kill-bit on the very Registry Key that FP uses for that ActiveX Control.
You may want to look and see if this is perhaps the problem. This needs to be ruled out first before we proceed, because if that key has the Kill-bit, then it wouldn't matter what you do.

Ubuntu 10 (Linux) & Firefox 3.6 ~ How to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in & ActiveX control

Ubuntu 10.045 (Linux) and Firefox 3.6.3 ~ How to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in & ActiveX control
In general Adobe needs to offer Ubuntu (Linux) support. I don't use Windows anymore and will go with whatever company provides me the Plug In's I need to function. In this case at the current time, I can't use Adobe flash Player to view You Tube video's. I followed the link that helps a user fix the problem:
Solve a Problem: The video won't play:
http://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?answer=56115
I then saw that you suggested that I first needed to uninstall any older versions of the Flash Player and then install the latest version of the Flash player. I clicked on the link find out how to uninstall it here:

http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
They didn't offer any help with Ubuntu 10.045 (Linux). Please offer the instructions and automatic (non-terminal) uninstaller. Also, I want an automatic installer for Ubuntu 10 (Linux) & Firefox 3.6 that is easy like like you have for Windows and like Sun's Java has for Linux.

You should go to this site to see what versions of Flash Player and Shockwave Player you have installed.
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/
The versions you are listing (10.0 r12, 10.0 r2) appear to be Shockwave Plauer versions, not Flash Player.
If you want to uninstall Flash Player, there should be an uninstaller in the install directory. I do not know where that is on Linux.

Web browser and script activeX controls and HTML data

Hello,
I'm trying to use the Microsoft Web Browser (IWebBrowser2) and Script (IScriptControl) activeX controls in Labview to evaluate and execute HTML script. If I wire the web browser control's document object to the object input of the Script control's AddObject method, I can then evaluate/execute script such as "document.f.btnI.focus();" and such (in this case corresponding to Google's home page). However, there are other expressions that include the "window" object that are proving much more difficult to work with. Although I can browse the document object's parentWindow object via the property browser, if I try to access that object programatically, I get the error "Error -2147467262 occurred at No such interface supported". I'm wondering how to include the window object for scripting.
I'm writing a content-oriented web crawler. I've been writing it with pretty low level TCP functions, handling 301/302 "object moved" and "<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="0; url=http://millercountyliberal.com/">" redirections manually. But there are other automatic script-based redirections like:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
that I'm still trying to figure out how to work with. As you can see, to work with that one manually involves the window object. The reason that I don't just let the Web Browser object handle the redirections is because that object often throws script errors, downloads embedded graphics and other unnecessary components, can't handle some non-standard redirections, and sometimes annoyingly crashes. Any help would be appreciated. A code sample is attached. The Web Browser control should already exist on your machine if you have Internet Explorer installed. The script control may need to be registered before it can be used as follows:
regsvr32 "c:\MyDir\XHTTP.dll"
Thanks.

HTML Script Testing.zip ‏773 KB

Hi Ted,
This seems to be a problem with the way you are referencing the ActiveX properties. I would research a little more on the API for these objects. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/browser/webbrowser/reference/ifaces/iwebbrowser2/document.asp for an explanation of the IWebBrowser2 Document property. I am suspicious of where you are typecasting the Document variant into the IHTMLDocument2 object and this is where the error is being thrown.
A search of this error code on Google shows that this is a generic error from the ActiveX object, and not a LabVIEW error, although it is confusing since LabVIEW uses error codes in this same range.
Hope this helps!

ActiveX controls not downloaded when using Internet Explorer 10

We have many legacy applications developed using ASP and VB(InterDev). Our organization is moving to use Internet Explorer 10 in the near future.
We had a IE10 compatibility testing for our legacy applications and we observed that the applications using ActiveX controls are not working. Applications works perfectly fine with the older version of Internet Explorer.
We looked for the various workarounds but we did not find any.
Some application does nothing when we click on a button to generate the report but some applications throws the below error:
<div id="x_x_imcontent"> <div style="font-size: 9pt; direction: ltr;">"ActiveX
control failed to load! -- This control is required to use the Address Book and Attachment features. Please check your browser security settings and/or contact PC Support to install the digitally signed control."</div>
</div>
We will be glad if we get any assistance on this issue.

Hi,
Please post your ActiveX feature testing scripts to the IE Web Developer forum.
(f12>Debug tab, search for ActiveX.... you should be able to find code blocks where you are feature testing for your ActiveX controls eg var ourcontrol=new ActiveX('foobar');
these code blocks will be the origin of the error messages that are injected into the page. (you can also search for where the "ActiveX control failed to load" string is in your code.)
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/ie/en-US/home?forum=iewebdevelopment
IE10 has ActiveX filtering.... a blue circle with a line through it appears in the Address bar if any ActiveX content is blocked by Tools>ActiveX filtering.
IE10 has Enhanced protected Mode turned on by default in the Internet and Restricted Zones. I assume that you are mapping your test domain to the Intranet zone (where EPM is turned off by default and x32 bit controls are used.... if not you should see information
bars asking for permission to run the 32bit activeX controls)
Ensure you are using the Default IE security settings, (and also that you have applied the new admx files to your GPO and GPEdit control panels....)
Tools>Internet Options>Security tab, click "Reset all zones to default".
Ensure your test environment maps to the Intranet Zone (File>Properties) and that Enhanced Protected Mode is turned off for that zone (Security tab of Internet Options)
Ensure that your ActiveX controls are enabled (Tools>Manage Addons>Show all Addons) and that they have the correct permissions..... find them in the Addons manager and then click the item in the list to display their properties and permissions... at
the bottom of the Addons Properties there is a textarea with "You have approved this addon to run in the follow websites"... you testing and production domains should be listed.
For the best solutions/answers you should probably open a support ticket at support.microsoft.com so a support engineer can access your testing environment and do some tests.

ActiveX Control recording but not playing back in a VS 2012 Web Performance Test

I am testing an application that loads an Active X control for entering some login information. While recording, this control works fine and I am able to enter information and it is recorded. However on playback in the playback window it has the error "An
add-on for this website failed to run. Check the security settings in Internet Options for potential conflicts."
Window 7 OS 64 bit
IE 8 recorded on 32 bit version
I see no obvious security conflicts. This runs fine when navigating through manually and recording. It is only during playback where this error occurs.

Hi IndyJason,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
As you said that you could not playback the Active X control successfully in web performance test. I know that the ActiveX controls in your Web application will fall into three categories, depending on how they work at the HTTP level.
Reference:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms404678%28v=vs.110%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
I found that this confusion may be come from the browser preview in the Web test result viewer. The Web Performance Test Results Viewer does not allow script or ActiveX controls to run, because the Web performance test engine does not run the, and for security
reasons.
For more information, please you refer to this follwoing blog(Web Tests Can Succeed Even Though It Appears They Failed Part):

"the activex control for flash player could not be registered" - Solutions Roundup

I recently ran into this problem on my computer:
http://at32.s3.amazonaws.com/flash_install_problems2.jpg
I am a Flash developer (as in I write SWFs, I don't work for Adobe). and when I updated IE to 10.2, "the activex control for flash player could not be registered". Since I am a developer, I also have Firefox and Chrome installed, with Flash running without problems. For a long time now, Internet Explorer has used a different version (ActiveX) to the other browsers, which use plugins. I am a strong supporter of Flash, it's great to develop with and has a very wide feature set which is growing all the time, unlike fixed technologies/standards. However, the weakest part is the install process - I don't understand why their is a Download Manager. Google Chrome does it's best (so far) by managing the install/update process entirely in the background. Anyway, it was in my best interest to try and get to the bottom of this.
For the record, on the problem machine I have Windows 7 with IE8, but I have seen almost identical symptoms with IE9, Windows XP SP3, as well as various iterations of Flash Player (10.0, 10.1, 10.2 and even some final editions of version 9).
First I tried the standard support here:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html
Basically, doing the manual uninstall and manual install of the latest version (without using the download manager, or have IE open). This did not work. I also tried the Microsoft "subinacl" program, together with "reset_fp10.bat". This didn't work either. However, you should try all of these things first before progressing further.
A quick note about people who had tried running the following at a command prompt: "secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\repair\secsetup.inf /db secsetup.sdb /verbose"
I didn't do this, because on investigating further it didn't seem to work with Windows 7, only Windows XP, Windows 2000 or Windows 2003 - though there was a few threads where this had fixed the problem for some users.
For my solution, it is recommended you use the manual uninstall / installers, so you should have them downloaded ready to use.
I then heard about problems with permissions in the registry with the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\shockwaveflash.shockwave
So I opened regedit.exe (start - run - typed "regedit.exe"), navigated to the key and sure enough, I couldn't open it - permission denied - even though I had an administrator account. If for some reason, you can access this key (and any subkeys), then it's likely the following fix will not resolve the problem.
I then done further diagnosis, by using Process Monitor to try and install Flash Player, and I got the following:
http://at32.s3.amazonaws.com/flash_install_problems.gif
This shows all the access denied errors the Flash Player install was experiencing when trying to write to the registry key. This confirmed that this was the problem. I only stress this because several people said it was unwise to tinker with the registry. Though this is common advice, this is the only known fix for this precise problem at present, since you need to manually adjust the permissions yourself. I don't know who is at fault here - Microsoft or Adobe - but let's just get Flash fixed...
The solution:
Firstly, you may want to backup your registry, or the exact key. I didn't do this so I've provided no instructions on how to, but it is recommended for the paranoid. Also make sure as much software is closed down as possible - browsers, IM software, any junk in your system tray. As way of example, I happened to have "BBC iPlayer" installed and running in the background which uses Adobe AIR and Flash Player, so I exited that too.
1) Open regedit (start - run - type "regedit.exe"). You may need to right click on it and select "Run As Administrator", but I didn't as my account was already administrator.
2) Navigate to the key. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\shockwaveflash.shockwave
Click on it to confirm that you cannot access it (you will get an error) - if their are no problems - this probably isn't the cause of your issues.
3) Right click on it and click Permissions, and ignore any message that may pop up.
4) Under "Group or Usernames" click "Add". Type your account name name, or "Administrators" in the box, then "Check Names" to format it correctly, then Ok.
5) Now on the next screen click the checkbox to enable Full Control (this will also automatically enable "Read" permission too).
6) Click Advanced, then the "Owner" tab at the top. You will see that their is no "Current Owner". This is what we will now fix.
7) Click on your name to change the owner to (I went for Administrators). Also enable the checkbox entitled "Replace Owner on subcontainers and objects". Then click Ok. You will get an error message, which you can try clicking Retry to, but hit Cancel - this is not a problem.
8) Click Ok a couple of times and this part of your registry is now fixed.
9) Now it's a simple case of running the manual Flash uninstall program, then finally the manual Flash installer (for Active X - not the Firefox/Chrome plugin versions). To my surprise, after a couple of days looking into this - I finally had a solution and Flash in IE once more. If you are using Firefox too you may find Flash is no longer installed their (the uninstaller removed it). In this case just install via the Adobe site or try to watch a video on You Tube and you will be prompted or linked to the install.
Hope this provides a good round up of the possible solutions to this problem. Hopefully Microsoft or Adobe can find out what causes this issue in the first place so we don't have to go down this route for much longer. Chrome's implementation of Flash shows how effortlessly things can work!

They will stay on the screen. However, Process Monitor is only intended for advanced users. It is recommended that users try to navigate to the troublesome registry key using regedit, and see if they can access it or not without an error. This is far easier than trying to use Process Monitor, which is very complicated.
I used Process Monitor to confirm that it was just that key which was causing the problem, and not others. Process Monitor is not to be confused with the new Resource Monitor which is accessible via Task Manager in Windows 7 (and possibly Vista). If you must experiment (and Process Monitor is very useful for diagnosing many deep-level problems if you know what you're looking for) Process Monitor can be downloaded from here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645
It replaces the older Sysinternals "FileMon" and "RegMon". For those interested in the technical side, I had to setup a number of filters to be able to get the results display as in the screenshot. First of all to just show Registry events. Then to just show events from the manual Flash activeX installer executable. The I added a filter to show only non-successfull results. And finally, for the purposes of the screenshot, added a filter to just show those with "Access Denied", since other non-critical errors are also picked up due to missing keys because installation has not yet been fully completed I guess. When experimenting, most of these filters were applied using the "is not" boolean logic, which will make sense if you experiment with the program.
Without adding any filters, it picks up so many events (hundreds per second) that it's otherwise unusable. e.g. 40,000 events within the first few seconds of opening the program. For this reason, I recommend simply using Regedit to diagnose the problem with the particular Flash registry key.

ActiveX control for Flash Player could not be registered - no solutions work

I am getting the "ActiveX control for Flash Player could not be registered" when I try to install 11 on IE9 (Windows 7 64-bit). I have tried everything that has been suggested in other posts and forums to no avail. This is driving me crazy and hindering me from work. Can someone please help? Thank you!

I just had this issue and have been searching and searching for a way to fix this issue. I have a Windows 7 64 bit system and this was happening with IE 9. But I have found the solution.
Go to http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/494/cpsid_49419.html and follow these instructions. This worked for my system and I was able top install the newest flash with no problems.
Make sure you are logged into a Windows Administrator account. If you are not, you will not be able to use SubInACL.
Download SubInACL from the Microsoft Download Center.
Follow the installation instructions. Make sure you install SubInACL (subinacl.exe) to the directory C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools.
Download the reset_fp10.zip file.
Open the fp10.zip file and extract the reset_fp10.cmd file to the directory C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\.
Both this file and SubInACL (subinacl.exe) must be in this directory.
Double-click reset_fp10.cmd. A command window will open, and SubInACL will run.
Do not use the machine while SubInACL is running.
After SubInACL finishes, you will see a prompt "Press any key to continue".
Install Flash Player from the Flash Player download page.
To confirm that your installation succeeded, visit the About Flash Player page. At the top of the screen, you should see a message that reads "Adobe Flash Player Successfully Installed."

In PowerPoint I Have Shockwave ActiveX Control - How do I Get Shockwave Flash Object?

I'm running the latest versions of Windows 7 and PowerPoint via Parallels on my Mac. I want to insert a Flash movie into a PowerPoint slide. The instructions I've found tell me to look in Developer section->More Controls, find Shockwave Flash Object, use it to insert a Flash Object, and then to edit the Movie property of that object. But, I do not see Shockwave Flash Object. Instead I see Shockwave ActiveX Control. The properties of Shockwave ActiveX Control do not include a Movie property.
I have gone to "http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/" and clicked the option to install the Shockwave Player, but the site says the Shockwave Player is already installed.
How can I get the Shockwave Flash Object for PowerPoint into my installation?
Thanks very much in advance to all for any info.

Hi Vik.. I don't use Powerpoint but I do know about Shockwave Flash Object. It is in the manage add ons and installs when Flash Player is installed. It is an ActiveX Control and if you have the latest FP installed, Flash10d.ocx should be listed on the same line. It may or may not list the version #, which would be 10.0.42.34. It must be enabled.
Beyond that info I could give you a link to a thread that involved powerpoint 2003 and 2007 if you think that would be of
any help to you.
Just post back.
Thanks
