IE11 prevents ActiveX from running

IE displays a active x warning and ask for permission if you allow it to run or not. To overcome this the only solution is to;

  1. Open Internet Explorer.
  2. Click the Tools menu, and then click Internet Options.
  3. On the Security tab, click the Custom level button.
  4. Scroll down the Security Settings list until you see ActiveX
    controls and plug-ins.
  5. For Automatic prompting for ActiveX controls, click Enable.
  6. Scroll down to Download signed ActiveX controls and click Enable or
    Prompt.
  7. Scroll down to Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins and click Enable or
    Prompt.
  8. Scroll down to Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting and
    click Enable or Prompt.
  9. Click OK, and then click OK again.

There is no way to overcome this issue except changing manually Internet explorer settings. Try checking if plugin works fine while changed settings. If its still not working or not showing any warning is display try checking console for other errors which are not related to active x. Good luck!
