"Internet Explorer restricted this webpage from running scripts on ActiveX controls" Stop IE warning messages for good in regedit

Are you fed up with warning messages such as,

"Internet Explorer restricted this webpage from running scripts on ActiveX controls"

"An add-on for this website failed to run. Check security settings in Internet options for potential conflicts"


You can turn off these warnings permanently. The security set by Internet Explorer is not replicated in other browsers like Mozilla Firefox and Opera, so why worry about turning it off?


Do this.


STEP 1.

Click "start".

Type "regedit" in "Start Search".
..........

STEP 2.

You will see "Computer" and when you click that you will see a list of folders:

The two important folders are,

HKEY_CURENT_USER and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

Let's deal with the first folder.

Open each of the following folders to get to the "exe" file by clicking the "" sign on the left of each of them:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_LOCALMACHINE_LOCKDOWN


Click the folder "FEATURE_LOCALMACHINE_LOCKDOWN"
You will see a couple of files on the right.
Right click "iexplorer.exe"
Left click "Modify"
You will see a "1" there. Change it to "0".
..........

STEP 3.

Now let's deal with the second folder.

Open each of the following folders to get to the "exe" files:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
\FeatureControl\FEATURE_LOCALMACHINE_LOCKDOWN


Click the folder "FEATURE_LOCALMACHINE_LOCKDOWN"
You will see about 8 files on the right.
Change the following four files from "1" to "0" as you did in STEP 2:
(Right click "wmplayer.exe" for example. Left click "Modify" You will see a "1" there. Change it to "0")
..........

"msimn.exe" may not be there. If it isn't don't worry about it. Just change the other three files. It will work anyway.

Note: You will have to do this again after about 3 months, especially it you use a registry cleaner. Don't use them!

Getting Sound Through Computer Speakers from the Microphone

If you want your computer microphone to play sound through the computer speakers you can try techarena.

However, if you have a newer version of sound software this may not work. I have a Dell computer with Realtek sound software. I tried following the instructions on the above site but my software doesn't have an "options" tab.

There is a way:


1. Go to the Start menu and enter "regedit" in the start search window.

3. Navigate through the registry by using the folder + signs in the left pane to get to this location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Cl ass\{4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000\Settings\


7. Right click on "ForceDisableJD".

8. Left click "Modify".

9. In the 'Value data' box, add 01 to the existing 0000 to make it "0000 01". If you have "0000 00" change it to "0000 01" then click OK.

10. Exit the Registry and restart the computer.

11. After restart, right click the sound program tray icon. Left click "Audio Devices". Right click "Speakers". Left click "Properties". Left click "levels" tab. Move "Microphone" and "FrontMic" markers to the right on the slide control.

12. Click "OK".

You are ready to speak into the microphone and hear the sound from the computer speakers.

Turn up the volume and away you go.

Happy computing.
