Enterprise vault and Internet Explorer 11

[AKL]

Hello All

As most of you already must be aware about Windows 8.1 preview release on 26th June 2013 which comes along with Internet explorer 11. I noticed issue with enterprise vault & Internet explorer 11.

When trying to access archive explorer or/and search archive on IE11, it generates below error:

Archive Explorer requires Internet Explorer 6.0 or later.

Obviously I ignored the error knowing my IE is not below IE 6 ;-). But just to make you guys aware of same if you notice the issue. Hopefully Symantec and MS developers will remediate this issue soon.

There are some other issues with IE11 with OWA as well, which I've reported about at below MS post:

Hope it helps. Not sure if an idea entry is required for same, given developers will work or probably already on Windows 8.1 compatibility with enterprise vault?

Does Compatibility View help?

Was this problem visible also in Windows 8 with IE 10?

Yes. if I add archive explorer/search archive site into compatibility view or alternatively enable option to use compatibility view for intranet sites, it opens those without any issue (should've tried that lol, sorry)

No, this issue was not seen with IE10. Just with IE11.
