Re-install Internet Explorer Add-on?

Post by CPTolin » Fri Jun 21, 2013 11:04 am

Windows 7 64- Bit
Internet Explorer 9
Ranorex Studio 4.04

Due to an Unrelated issue i had to run a windows "Fix It" to reset my internet Explorer Settings.
Ranorex Add-on now no longer appears in the Add-on List and my tests are running extremely slowly.
Is It Possible to re-intall the Add-on without uninstalling/reinstalling Ranorex Studio?

Hello,

In general, you should see the Ranorex Add-on in the list of 'Manage Add-ons'.
If it is not shown in the list, you would need to install Ranorex again.

Regards,

Thankyou. In my case I was able to re-establish the Add-on by Using the repair option in the uninstaller.

This is a bad advice, that made me reinstall Ranorex!
Proper solution is described here http://www.ranorex.com/support/user-gui ... izard.html

There is NO option for Internet Explorer in the instrumentation wizard.

The CORRECT procedure for fixing problems with the Ranorex IE extension is to uninstall Ranorex, reboot and reinstall Ranorex. The IE Extension is automatically installed with Ranorex since all MS Windows systems come with IE and Ranorex only works on Windows.
Shortcuts usually aren't...
