I developed a CWE extension for Lync 2013. It needs to load an ActiveX control.
I'm testing this on a Windows 7 with IE 8 and a Windows Server 2008 R2 with IE 8.
On Windows Server I added the url as a "Trusted Site" and the ActiveX control is loaded fine. But on Windows 7 I tried to do the same but it keeps saying "Automation Server can't create object". I did a reset to all the security settings of IE and they are equal to the settings that I have on Windows Server.
What else should I be looking for in order to solve this issue?
Try enabling Initialize and script active-x control not marked as safe setting from Internet option. If that also fails, keep protected mode off.
