HELP! Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 11 download problem

Catfish · 08-22-15, 11:04 AM

Hello,
i have Win 7 64 bit Professional edition with latest updates (despite one breaking my WLAN), and Windows Internet Explorer 11.

After one of the recent updates some weeks ago, the download manager within Internet Explorer 11 does not work anymore.

if i want to download a picture (e.g. jpg) from any website it works, however as soon as the download manager is involved (e.g. for downloading a Pdf or any program (!), the pop-up download manager at the base of the ie11 window does not react, when clicking on it with the mouse.
You can usually choose "execute/open", "save", or "save to". The buttons are there, but none of them work anymore.
I have browsed the web, and asked some friends, but no solution found.

Mozilla Firefox works without any problem.

Anyone ?
