IE 11 - Sharepoint open in windows explorer not working

In my IE 11 - Sharepoint open in windows explorer don't work.
It appear always error message "Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer"
Already installed FIX ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2846960)
Restart laptop
Then Sign in to the SharePoint Online site with Keep me signed in option
But still dont work.
This happens in all libraries. This issue happens in our corporate intranet. I had this issue in another laptops but with the Microsoft FIX and following all that steps, it solved.
But for whatever reason now i have 2 machines that even after applying the same Fix and steps still continues not working.

Hi,
From your description, my understanding is that you cannot use “open with explorer” in 2 machines in your farm.
If you have installed Desktop Experience feature in your environment, please add your SharePoint Server(http://spserver) to Local intranet site with steps below:
Open “Internet Options” menu.
Click “Security” tab.
Click Sites.
Click Advance.
Enter your SharePoint Server, click Add.
Close and apply.
Restart your browser, and test your issue.

Open Browser Window behavior not working in IE6 Win

Using DW 8 on Mac and can't get this Open Browser Window
behavior to work in IE 6 on a Windows machine. Any
suggestions?

This page is a GoLive page, and it throws a js error when it
loads because
of some of the GoLive code you have left therein.
I see that link as orange in IE6. And when you click on the
link, you throw
another js error, because the function (MM_openBrWindow) is
not defined on
the page - which is what causes the link to open in a
full-size browser
window. If it were not for that js error, you would get TWO
windows opening
since you have BOTH a link and the behavior, and the behavior
is not
'killed' with a return false, like this -
<a href="aptapp.html" class="override"
onClick="MM_openBrWindow('aptapp.html','QualifyforFREEMOVE','scrollbars=yes,width=760,hei ght=800');return
false">

Open Browser Window behavior not working

Just getting started with DW from GL - have successfully imported a few sites into DW from GL and am having trouble getting the Open Browser Window behavior to work. Worked fine in GL, code is similar but different. Have tried different things and am out of ideas. I'm not too code-savy.
Here's where the non-working behaviors/actions are: http://www.philasecurities.com/data/luncheon.html
When a user clicks on the red "more..." links they should open a new browser window like they do in the "Click
here for previous years..." section.
Any help would be appreciated!

bregent, thanks for your input but unfortunately most of that's greek to me. Could you either supply me with sample code for one of these links or explain what I'm doing wrong in the design mode? I've followed DW instructions and as far as I can tell I'm doing what I'm supposed to in the behaviors tag inspector. Not sure about some of the settings I should have when browsing for the linked file to open in the new browser window. What should the parameters be set to? What should the relative link be set to, document or site root? How about some of the other options like Select file name from: data sources, server, site root? I've messed with them and tried different combinations but nothings working for me.

"Open Picture Window Fever" not working properly

I've used "Open Picture Window Fever" successfully until
recently. After adding the behavior, and viewing my page in a
browser, the images do not open using "Fever." When I check the
behavior specs to make sure the dimensions are there, "image name,
width and height" are replaced with switched info. For instance,
"Image Name" will now have one of the correct window dimensions,
"Width" will have another dimension and "Height" now has part of
the title or original "Image Name." If I browse a second time for
the image, it seems to work o.k. however I'm working with pages
that have many images and going through "Fever" twice for each
image is a drag.
I've searched for a new download for my Mac. Forum writers
suggested
http://dreamweaverfever.com/extensions/
for other users but it doesn't download for me giving me scrambled
text. Might be only for PC.
I've also trashed preferences thinking that might help.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

DX4000 Search in Windows Explorer not working

I'm the administrator of a 6TB DX4000 which is the NAS at our office of 4 PCs. The Sentinel holds about 25GB of our working data (word, excel, pdf, and other files), which I back-up every 2 days onto a WD My Passport Ultra UDB drive. I can do this using Copy/Paste functions in Windows Explorer. The USB drive can be connected via my PC or, for faster back-ups, via one of the USB ports at the back of the Sentinel (I have configured the USB drive as a shared folder). During and after the backups, everything works well (all of us at the office can save, modify, and create new folders and files). The only problem is that Windows Explorer stops displaying files/folders, also the WE search function stops working for a few hours in all PCs. Thus, we cannot locate files when the search function is not working, which is a big problem for us. This happens irregularly (sometimes after each backup and at times every couple of weeks). I’m quite certain that this issue is being originated by the backup process. I have tried a few things: restarted PCs/Sentinel/Switch/Modem to no avail. All updates have been carried-out. Also, I checked other forums/threads but haven't found a similar problem. Everything is working fine, except that we can’t do searches in WE (also searches don’t work in Word or any other software). Inexplicably, WE starts to work again by itself in full capacity a few hours later. Please let me know if there is a solution to this issue. Thanking you in advance.

Hi Gramps, Many thanks for your thoughts. It took me a while to try various ideas, hence my slow response. When Windows Explorer was not working, Remote Desktop Connection was not working either (it was hung-up and would not load further than saying something along the lines of: updating desktop settings). However, the Dashboard remained operational during this time. In answer to your query: Yes, I shared the USB My Passport from the Dashboard when I first set-up the system 9 months ago. Following your ideas, I unshared the drive using the Dashboard. This took few hours. Then I rebooted the Sentinel and all the PCs. I’m glad to report that the WE is now fully operational and that the WE search function is now working. Also, RDC is working again. I’m beginning to agree with your thoughts that File Indexing is the problem since I have been disconnecting the USB My Passport as soon as the copying of files was completed (thus Indexing may have been incomplete). Please let me know if there is a way of testing if “File Indexing” has been completed. Much appreciated.

Trying to open a sharepoint library in Windows Explorer via IE 8 results in the error "your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer"

I am attempting to connect to a Microsoft Sharepoint library, via the "Actions -> Open in Windows Explorer" option from the Sharepoint page. When I do so, I get the error message "your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer". In short, I am trying to get the "drag and drop" functionality of a Sharepoint library.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit and IE8. The target Sharepoint environment is a MOSS 2007 EE. My Windows "WebClient" service is running, and I have no problem connecting to this exact library via a Windows XP computer running IE8.

Verify that the Webclient is started automatically from the Services.msc
Verify that your Portal is in the Intranet local security zone (You can reach it from Your Internet Explorer Browser Security Tag) if not add it to the list
restart the WebClient service if it's work good
If not you have to create a network share to your portal URL directly not your documents library.
Open Windows Explorer or My Computer from the Windows Start Menu.
From the Tools menu, click Map Network Drive…. A new Map Network Drive window opens.
In the Map Network Drive window, choose an available drive letter from the dropdown list located next to the "Drive:" option. Any drives already mapped will have a shared folder name displayed inside the dropdown list, next to the drive letter.
Type the name of the folder to map wich is in this case your SharePoint Portal URL (Don't include the documents libraries)
Click the "Reconnect at login" checkbox if this network drive should be mapped permanently. Otherwise, this drive will un-map when the user logs out of this computer.
If the remote computer that contains the shared folder requires a different username and password to log in, click the "different user name" hyperlink to enter this information.
Click Finish.
I am looking for a suite method :)

If you're using the 32-bit version and still having issues, you may need to repair or reinstall Office so that the underlying Office DLLs (on which those browser features rely) are clean.
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/27319/how-do-i-enable-open-in-explorer
You might be using 64-bit Internet Explorer. Switching to 32-bit IE caused the featured to become enabled. There was absolutely no indication in the application that this could possible be the cause. It was a shot in the dark.
Mind: blown.
The Plan Browser Support article on TechNet lists the supported browsers and limitations in "non- or partially supported browsers".
It states the following among the limitations for 64bit IE 7, 8 and 9:
Explorer view
Removed in SharePoint Foundation 2010. Libraries that have been upgraded from earlier versions of SharePoint Foundation 2010 may still have Explorer views and these may not work.

LLBs opening in Internet Explorer not Windows Explorer

Labiew 7:
Having enabled the option "Enable Windows Explorer for LLB files", I've noticed that clicking LLB files actually opens the library in "Internet Explorer" rather than the "Windows Explorer", which is a minor nuisance.
Does anyone know why this might be, and is there anything that can be done about it?
I've checked the .llb file association and I can't see any way to change the "explorer" association.
Note: I'm using LabVIEW 7 on Windows XP. Some time ago, when I was previously using NT4, I'm sure LLBs opened in Windows Explorer as expected (not Internet Explorer).
Any ideas anyone?
Mark.

That's a new one.
Just out of curiosity, what does it look in IE when it opens it.
Try unchecking the option, restart Windows, then check the option again
and restart again and see if that fixes it. Somehow the association is
messed up and this might fix it.

Cannot delete exe files - The action can't be completed because the file is open in Windows Explorer

We have received 3 new computers with Windows 8.1. All of us 3 have the same problem: we cannot delete exe files with message "The action can't be completed because the file is open in Windows Explorer"
For example, I download skypeinstall.exe on desktop, install the program correctly and then try to delete the file: file is in use by Windows Explorer, cannot be delete.
We reboot computer, we are able to delete the file. But, if I restore the file from the recycle bin on the desktop, I cannot delete it again until I reboot the PC. I used ProcessExplorer to see what is locking it and I can see 5 instances of explorer.exe
locking the file.
I can always reproduce the same way:
1-Reboot
2-Delete exe file
3-Restore file
4-Delete stop working and 5 explorer.exe handle are locking it.
I have tried the following so far after reading multiple threads:
- De-activating Windows Search service
- Activating User Experience service
- Deleting from command prompt (no success)
- In folder options: inactivate display icon on thumbnail and activate always display icons, never thumbnail
- Changing folder view (contents, detail, small icons...)
- Using Lock Hunter - not working until reboot
None of these worked.
We all have Windows 8.1 with Crucial SSD drive, could the problem be linked with the SSD drive incompatibility?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Please try to make a clean boot for your system, then check if this problem resolved.

If problem persists, try to open Resource Monitor to check handle of Explorer.exe, if there any exception, end them for test.

FDF file opening in Internet Explorer--not in Adobe Acrobat Professional XI

Good morning!
I have created a form in Acrobat Professional XI and have a submit button that emails that data back as an .fdf file. This is working as it should.
However, on some of the returned emails, the .fdf file is opening in Internet Explorer--not in the associated file in Acrobat Professional XI.
Is this the default? Is there a way that I can specify that it always opens in Acrobat?
I looked on line, and found where you have to associate that type of file with Acrobat
I have Windows XP
in My Computer--in Tools, Folder Options, File Types, I have where FDF files are associated with Adobe Acrobat.
Are there other changes that need to be made?
We have a work-around--we can import the file data into the form--just takes a little longer.
I tested this before I posted the form online, and it worked perfect. Now that it is online, we are seeing some snags...
As always--Thank you for your help!

Thank you for your quick response!
no--it is an fdf file. Has an .fdf extension.
One difference that I have noticed that the file that is opening correctly (in acrobat) was sent from a gmail account. The file that is opening in internet explorer was filled out in Adobe Reader XI from an outlook email.
This is the window that appears when the file is opened.
On the Tools--the only items that are accessible from this screen is the AddOnTools--not all the tools sets.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Unable to save document - Read Only or Open by another user error occurs when PDF is opened from Windows Explorer

Adobe Pro XI - using Windows 7 Pro OS
When a PDF document is opened from Windows Explorer, and pages are added, deleted, notations made, any type of changes, it cannot be saved until Windows Explorer is fully closed. If you try to save the document, you receive the following error - "The document could not be saved. The file may be read-only, or another user may have it opened. Please save the document with a different name or in a differnt folder. " I have confirmed the document is not read only, it is not open by another user, and it is not open multiple times. Once you fully close Windows Explorer, and try to save the document, it saves without a problem.
Are there settings in either Adobe Pro XI or Windows that will allow you to save documents without closing Windows Explorer first?
Thank you for any assistance you can provide. This error is a frustration since I open all my documents through Windows Explorer.

Open With Windows Explorer very slow

I am trying to troubleshoot an issue where some users of our SharePoint environment have problems using the open with windows explorer option in a document library.
For some users this works fine... the explorer opens quickly and they can manage the documents.
For other users it takes up to 5 minutes before the explorer view opens. During this time the browser becomes completly unresponsive.
As part of the troubleshooting process I tried taking the UNC path that is shown in the explorer view and tried using the Start -> Run and then entering in the path. This seems to cause the complete desktop to freeze until the explorer window displays.
This is occuring on Windows XP SP Pro SP2 with both IE6 and IE7. The desktops are on the same domain as the SharePoint servers.
Any thoughts on next steps?

I had similar issues with WSS 3 and MOSS 2007. Some users would experience slow load times when using IE8.
A. The authentication fix for Microsoft included the following:
In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > Services > WebClient > Parameters, add a new Multi-String Value named "AuthForwardServerList".
In the Value data field, add one URL you visit, following by the SharePoint server FQDN on the next line. Repeat for each URL you are having long wait times for. In the end, you'll have something like:
https://*.yourdomain.com
sharepointservername.yourdomain.com
https://otherspsite.yourdomain.com
otherspservername.yourdomain.com
The idea behind this is to explicitly tell WebDAV where to first go for authentication. This cleared up the majority of access speed issues with SP and we were back to sub-second access.
B. Occasionally that access would degrade for some reason for certain users. Turns out to be MS updates that make changes to IE settings. We go to IE Options > Advanced Settings tab and hit RESET. Whatever RESET does fixed the speed
issues with Explorer View.
C. Users who installed IE9 had major problems where access would take more than one minute to access these document libraries via Explorer View. And that's one minute for every navigation click. Double-click on a folder, wait a minute.
IE9 must have changed the authentication methodology for WebDAV since this was universally experienced for all IE9 users. MS couldn't provide a resolution on this. Our fix was to remove the IE9 update and revert back to IE8. Everything
went back to normal without having to make any changes to the Registry or IE settings. Doh!

I keep getting the message: "what should firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

cor-el,
Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

When viewing outlook emails in firefox, links open in internet explorer, not in firefox

when viewing my outlook emails in firefox, when I click on a link the new webpage is opened in internet explorer not in firefox

Thank you - that has solved the problem - links simply open in a new tab in firefox.
Marvellous.
