Windows Forum / Internet Explorer / General Topics / June 2007Making IE7 work in Vista
Like a lot of people, I could not get IE7 to work in Vista unless I ran it as an administrator. One solution I picked up was to disable protected mode using the tools menu - this worked well, but I wondered why I could not get the program to work 'properly'. Tonight on another forum I was given another tip and as it works, I thought I should pass it on - forgive me if this has already been posted. If you have omnipage OCR software installed, use msconfig to disable it running at startup - apparently it will still run if you want it to later. Re start your computer and IE7 should work fine, including in enabled protected mode. Good luck! JA What are you blethering about? IE7 is part of Vista. > Like a lot of people, I could not get IE7 to work in Vista unless I ran it > as an administrator.

Thankfully Vista users have put forward suggestions/workrounds to help. I had previously used IE7 on an XP2 machine with Omnipage running at startup with no problems, they only started after my upgrade to Vista. The reason for my original post was to pass on the help I recieved after reading a post on the WindowsXP magazine forum: http://forum.windowsxpmagazine.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=13486 Just trying to help out JA > Many people? > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] >>>> >>>> JA That's not many... >I have read threads in different forums, including this one, where people >have experienced difficulty with Vista's IE7 not opening.
