I bring this up as I purchased a new PC with Windows 11 and installed Civil 3D 2022 on it. I also have a laptop that I upgraded and regardless of this. We've known for well over 1 year now that this was coming from Windows. So they do NOT install Internet Explorer when you upgrade or get a new Windows 11 box. There are features within Civil 3D 2022 such as Volumes Dashboard that use Internet Explorer to read the XML that is created when you select to create a Cut/Fill report. There are also Toolbox features that do a similar process, run the Executable and Civil 3D access Internet explorer to read the XML file. Now we've been told for at least 5 years that IE (Internet Explorer) is going away and well Windows finally did this. So how do I fix this in Civil 3D? Is there a way to force Civil 3D to use Edge or Chrome instead? If so I'd love to know this fix. If now when are we getting a service pack to address this very long outstanding issue which should've been addressed back in 2018 when we were informed that IE would be retired.

I agree with @Anonymous statement, but considering they are probably testing and usually realease a update at this time of year it should be soon that you'll get an answer directly from them. I don't have any intrinsic knowledge, just going from past release schedules and such.

Nor sure if this works as I don't have Windows 11 yet (wasn't windows 10 the FINAL version, never to be replaced only upgraded?). Can you install Internet Explorer under windows 11? Or possibly just copy? I know I still use the Windows 7 calculator under window 10 and in the past used older discontinued/obsolete applet/programs in newer versions of windows.

My (2) printers are functioning without error. But, for the past few weeks, when I try to print a page while I'm on the internet (using Internet Explorer), the Print Window does not open. However, if I restart my computer and return to the same internet address and repeat my print command, the Print Window opens and the print command is successful. I have tried solutions regarding the internet temporary files with some sporatic success. Any suggestions to correct this problem?

I understand that you have an HP Pavilion 500-281 Desktop PC and when you try to print from the Internet explorer, the print window does not open. You have to restart the PC and then the print window appears from internet explorer. I appreciate the steps you have performed and have certainly done a good job.

I downloaded Google Chrome. Using Chrome as my browser, I am successful in printing from the internet. I can still print under Internet Explorer only after I restart my computer when I encounter the failure of my Print Window to open.

You can reset Internet Explorer settings to what they were when Internet Explorer was first installed on your PC. This can be useful for troubleshooting problems that may be caused by settings changed after installation. Note that resetting Internet Explorer isn't reversible, and all previous settings are lost after reset.

Earlier, I had read under a Windows forum, that the problem might be traced to the deletion of a "Low" file under the IE temporary file. I checked and found I had a functioning Low file. A suggested next step was to attempt a command prompt run as administrator: ICACLS"%\AppData\Local\Temp\Low"/setintegritylevel(OI)(OC)low. When I entered this command, I received a message that the c ommand had an error in file name, syntax, etc.

Lastly, in the related problem I had using Adobe Reader for a downloaded Internet file, I looked at the Reader history and found an entry: RdrCEF.exe--Application error Oxc0000022. Is this informative in any way?

2) I know how to uninstall programs through Control Panel, but I don't know howto uninstall IE 11 within Windows 7. The Step 2 link in your referenced "reinstall" procedure leads to a general purpose Microsoft site through which I couldn't find any specific instruction to uninstall my existing IE 11.

3)If I try to "run" my downloaded new copy without a prior uninstallment, I get a message that I already have a newer version (than the downloaded one) of IE 11 installed. I guess I could again restore my computer to an earlier time and try to install again, but I don't have much confidence that that would be successful.

Internet Explorer is designed to make it easy to browse and interact with websites on your intranet or on the Internet. Whenever you use the Internet, or software with Internet enabled features, information about your PC ("standard PC information") is sent to the websites you visit and online services you use. Standard PC information includes your PC's IP address, browser type and language, access times, and referring website addresses. This information might be logged on those sites' web servers. Which information is logged and how that information is used depends on the privacy practices of the websites you visit and web services you use.

ActiveX Controls are pieces of software that supplement how your browser works. For example, some ActiveX Controls can play audio, video, or show images on a webpage. These controls may have an impact on the performance, security, and reliability of Internet Explorer. ActiveX Filtering lets you browse the web with these controls turned off. When you view a webpage that has had ActiveX Controls filtered out, some content on the page might be turned off.

If you choose to turn on ActiveX Filtering, you can turn ActiveX Controls back on for a single website by clicking the ActiveX Filtering icon in the address bar. When you turn off ActiveX Filtering on a website, Internet Explorer stores the address of the website on which you have chosen to turn off ActiveX Filtering. You can delete this data at any time with Delete Browsing History.

Internet Explorer includes Adobe Flash Player. Certain Flash Player features may gather information about your PC or ask permission to use your PC's hardware features. Additional information about these features can be found here.

This feature in Internet Explorer is designed for use by developers and IT professionals to determine the compatibility of their websites with Internet Explorer. When you activate this feature, Internet Explorer logs data points about your interaction with webpages in an event log, which can be viewed with the Windows Event Viewer. These events describe failures that might have happened on the site and can include information about specific controls and webpages that failed. By default, this information can be viewed by all users on the PC unless an administrator restricts this access. For more information about logs and the use of the Windows Event Viewer, search Windows Help for "Event Viewer".

The AutoComplete feature in Internet Explorer lets you more quickly fill out web forms and go to websites you have visited in the past. AutoComplete collects and stores in the registry on your PC the data you type in web form text boxes and the address bar. AutoComplete information isn't shared with other user accounts on your PC.

As you browse the web, Automatic Crash Recovery in Internet Explorer stores information about your browsing session on your hard disk in the event of a crash, hang, or other unexpected shutdown. If your browsing session is shut down unexpectedly, Internet Explorer offers you the opportunity to resume your last browsing session.

Turning off Automatic Crash Recovery doesn't prevent Internet Explorer from saving information about your tabs; it only turns off the recovery of your tabs or browsing session. None of this information is sent to Microsoft unless you choose to send it, such as in an error report.

Lists of websites that were designed for older or other browsers, which allow Internet Explorer to automatically adjust how it renders or communicates with those websites in order to improve compatibility and provide for a better user experience on those sites.

Lists of websites that use Adobe Flash Player in ways that are known to be incompatible with Internet Explorer, so that Flash Player can be turned off for those websites. For more information on Flash Player, see the section on Adobe Flash Player earlier in this document.

If you choose this option, Internet Explorer will periodically download an updated list of Compatibility settings from Microsoft, and standard PC information will be sent. You can turn off Compatibility List Updates at any time.

Compatibility View helps make websites designed for older browsers look better when viewed in Internet Explorer. If you choose to view a website in Compatibility View, as a convenience to you, Internet Explorer will remember this choice and use Compatibility View the next time you visit the site. You can clear the list of websites you've chosen to display in Compatibility View by using Delete Browsing History in Internet Explorer or the Compatibility View Settings dialog box.
