I installed the Windows 8.1 upgrade that went without a hitch, or so I thought. I tried to use my ebanking that uses Java and while I could login and transfer funds I couldn’t get the final approval screen to popup to actually complete the transfer. It turns out that IE11 out of the box is incompatible with some of the java plugin helpers in the most up to date java version :(. One solution is to use Firefox that worked fine, but eventually I sorted out how to make IE11 work with Java
In IE11 go to Tools –> Internet Options –> Advanced –> Scroll to Security –> Uncheck “Enable Enhanced Protected Mode*” –> Close IE and reopen. Go to Manage add-ins and the 2 java helperSSV plugins should now be enabled rather than ‘incompatible’
My ebanking works again as it should 🙂
