Hi,

I have installed a Windows 7 Enterprise Edition X64 with IE9 and also Visio Viewer 2010.

If I am logged with a Domain Admin account, no problem, I can open VSD document but if I use a domain user Account, IE ask to download the document.

I click to download and IE ask again to download the document and IE loop on this point...

 

I have do some check and, when I use a Domain User Account, I don't see the "Microsoft Visio Document" ActiveX to the"Manage Add-Ons" of IE.

Do I have missed some point to install Visio Viewer for all users ???

 

Hi Misch,

Just installed the Visio Viewer 2010 in my test environment, Windows 7 64-bit with IE9. Both Domain Admin account and Domain User account got the IE add-on, actually it is called Office Document Cache Handler, and I can open the .vsd file with it log on with both accounts.

So I would consider this is an permission issue other than an Office issue.

I should mention that, even with the add-on installed, you still need to ensure it is enabled, and you should also make sure the script and ActiveX is allowed to run, at least you should be prompt to enable them.

Try to log on with a Local User account, see if it will get the add-on installed.

 

I'd also like to know, how did you install the Visio Viewer? Standalone install? Or Deployment? If by Deployment, have you set any attribution in the answer file for install

The Visio Viewer is install during a deployment with SCCM and command use is "visioviewer.exe /quiet"

ActiveX is not restricted through GPO so we search...

 

Dear,

several years later, i have the same problem with IE9 and Visio Viewer 2010. If we open a .vsd we have a mime problem. This MIME-sign  is the only thing that appears in the new browser tap.

If the user have VISIO pro installed, then there is no problem. If we use Firefox it doesn't work also. If we are log on with a local user, it doesn't work. It doesn't matter if the user have admin rights or not.

Have anyone a solution for this or another idea to try ?

No idea's ?

You must use visio viewer 2013 for IE 9, 2010 version is for 5-8 IE
