Webbrowser control security message (1 Viewer)

[ajsosnow]

I have a webbrowser control within a form set to display a folder location on our server. When ever a file in the folder is clicked to open this security message pops up. I'd like to get rid of it. I've tried adding the folder as a trusted location in the trust center but it didn't seem to change anything. Is there any easy way around this pop up?

Note that the header of the message box is "Windows Security" rather than Access. You are going to have to address this with Trust Center and Network control tricks. Every browser does this differently, but basically you have to identify that the file in question is from a trusted site.

This may be due to something called the 'Mark Of The Web' which was a well intentioned idea that causes as many issues as it solves
For further info see Obtain current geolocation data using VBA | Page 2 | Access World Forums (access-programmers.co.uk). In particular, post #28

Hope that helps

Hi @ajsosnow. Welcome to AWF!

If you can't get rid of the warning, you might consider not using a Web Browser Control. For example, you could directly open a Windows Explorer Window instead. Just a thought...
