I have a Server 2012R2 box that is experiencing an issue that was reported back in Windows 7-Server 2008 period, but the directions to correct the problem back then are not fixing the problem now. ...
The culprit for me was IE GPO preventing scripts from running.
Computer Management >Windows Components > Internet Explorer > Internet Control Panel > Security Page > Local Machine Zone
- Allow active scripting - Enabled: Enable
- Allow binary and script behaviors - Enabled: Enable
- Run ActiveX controls and plugins - Enabled: Enable
- Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting - Enabled: Enable
It's likely that whoever created the policy was thinking "ActiveX bad" and "scripts bad," but it should be fine to allow them from the local zone since a lot of Windows components depend on them.
