2.1 Supported browsers for webscanning


Warning.png Webscanning is only supported on Windows systems, not on Mac.

2.1.1 Microsoft Edge

If you have a version which is dated before January 2020, no extra actions are required. Versions dated from then on need some extra actions in order for the webscanning to work:

  • Open your Edge browser if it's not already open
  • Type "edge://flags" in the address bar on top of the screen
  • Type "clickonce" in the search field
  • Set "ClickOnce Support" to "Enabled"

Info.png This only works for Windows users! Mac users still can't use the webscanning application, and the ClickOnce plugin isn't available for them too!

2.1.2 Microsoft Edge (starting from version 93.x)

The newest versions of Microsoft Edge are based on the same software Google Chrome is working with. This means that the requirements for the webscanning to work are different than the other versions of Microsoft Edge. In order for these new Edge versions to work, perform these actions:

  • Open your Edge browser if it's not already open
  • In the address bar on top of the screen, go to [1]
  • Choose one of the ClickOnce applications (for example: ClickOnce for Google Chrome)
  • Click the "Add to Chrome" button
  • You'll be provided with a message saying "Add ClickOnce to Microsoft Edge", choose "Add Extension"
  • After the installation, restart Edge

Info.png If you're not able to install the plugin at first, click the "Allow extensions from other stores" button in the blue bar at the top of the screen.

Note.png As already mentioned before, Edge is now based on the same software Google Chrome is using. That's why it could be a bit confusing when you see Chrome being mentioned everywhere. Don't worry, that's normal, you can just continue in Edge.

2.1.3 Internet Explorer (version 8.0 or higher)

No extra actions are required.

2.1.4 Google Chrome

Following component, “ClickOnce for Google Chrome”, or a similar ClickOnce extension is required to use the webscanning in Google Chrome.

When you're getting the error "this page is not responding" try to disable the option "Use hardware acceleration when possible" in the settings or try to use a wired connection instead of wifi.

2.1.5 Mozilla Firefox

Following component, "Breez ClickOnce", or a similar ClickOnce extension is required to use the web scanning in Mozilla Firefox.

  • Download the extension Breez ClickOnce
  • Click "Add to FireFox"
  • After installation, restart Firefox
  • When using webscanning, click the "ClickOnce Install" button in order to run the webscanning application

2.1.6 Safari

Not supported
