I re-installed IE11 on a 64 bit machine because it was frequently crashing (on a click event, I think). Now my javascript code - var oConn = new ActiveXObject("ADODB.Connection"); fails with: "Run time error: 429 ActiveX Component Can't Create Object." It was working fine before! the re-installation.
I traced the execution with ProcMon on a 32 bit laptop where the code works and on the 64 bit failure. I have some logs that I will post if anyone answers my problem.
It looks like the IE security zone settings might be causing the problem. I tested my code with VBA in Excel. This works fine. My problem is in IE11.
