Need to view JSON responses in IE?

  1. Open Notepad and paste the following:
  2. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00;
    ; Tell IE 7,8,9,10 to open JSON documents in the browser on Windows XP and later.
    ; 25336920-03F9-11cf-8FD0-00AA00686F13 is the CLSID for the "Browse in place" .
    ;
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\application/json]
    "CLSID"="{25336920-03F9-11cf-8FD0-00AA00686F13}"
    "Encoding"=hex:08,00,00,00
  3. Save document as IE-Json.reg and then run it.
