This actually opens 2x IE windows, but only one of them is closed 'objExplorer.Quit' is called. I'm using Windows 8 Pro and IE10.

please respond to the request for details under, this is something I've seen on several machines: all deployed through WDS using the same image and getting the same GPOs applied... If more details are required for debugging this issue, please let me know.

UAC / win7 issues — Tue, 12 Oct 2010 12:04:14 GMT

when trying to run this code on some win7 machines with UAC enabled, this error message is returned: ActiveX component can't create object: 'InternetExplorer.Application' for the line "Set objExplorer = CreateObject ("InternetExplorer.Application")".

what security setting should be changed to allow this to run even though UAC is enabled?

Hey script guy,

Apparently when a user closes out the progress status Internet browser, it throws the error "the object invoked has disconnected from it clients." and the script exits out?

Is there any way to to have a new browser session open when the browser window is closed. or at least completete the script itself.

Please help...

I do that if I incorpate the Documeent.Writeln method, it doesn't throw the object invoked has disconnected from it clients error?

Any suggestions?

bjDocument.Writeln "<html><head><title> >>> Status Window <<< </title></head>"

objDocument.Writeln "<body <body STYLE=""font:14 pt arial; color:white;" & _

" filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Gradient(GradientType=0, StartColorStr='#000000', EndColorStr='#0000FF')"">"

objDocument.body.style.cursor = "Wait" <--

objDocument.Writeln "Collecting Folder Sizes... If IE seems hung, give it a moment... "

objDocument.Writeln "If Explorer window is closed the script will terminate. "

objDocument.Writeln " Please be patient... "

'Completes HTML code for status window and closes it.

objDocument.Writeln " Finished!"

objDocument.body.style.cursor = "default" <-- Sets curser back to default.

objDocument.Writeln "</body></html>"

objDocument.Writeln()

objDocument.Close
