Depending on your organization, you may also need to change your Internet Explorer security options so that ActiveX controls work as expected:
-
In Internet Explorer, go to Tools > Internet Options > Security > Custom Level.
-
Scroll down to ActiveX controls and plugins, and select Enable under Run ActiveX controls and plugins and Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting.
-
Select OK > OK, and close all Internet Explorer windows.
Important: If you made a change to the Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting setting, you must restart your computer for the change to take effect.
