Hi,

If ActiveX is disabled on client PC’s/browsers will this have any impact on Laserfiche Web Applications? I’m guessing not but just want to be sure.

Thanks,

Charlie.

A couple small clarifications:

Web Access 9 and 10 both use ActiveX to detect whether Laserfiche Scanning or the Office Plug-in are installed on the local machine. It won't launch the plug-ins if it can't detect them.
Web Access 9 used ActiveX to apply digital signatures. Web Access 10, however, only uses ActiveX for the detection of the signing plugin, not the signing itself.

Web Access uses an ActiveX plug-in when creating digital signatures and for launching Laserfiche Scanning. If you are not launching Scanning or signing documents in Laserfiche with the digital signature feature in Web Access, then there is no impact to disabling ActiveX.

Earlier versions of Web Access used ActiveX to initialize the Laserfiche MS Office Plug-In. If you're using Web Access 10 or higher, or are willing to install the Laserfiche MS Office Plug-in outside of Web Access, ActiveX isn't needed.
