what happens when you change 1802 in 1804?

How to change the port no

in the browser address bar

This happens while debugging, the browser is blank "Windows internet explorer" with nothing on address bar, as soon as this opens its navigates to Webapplication VWD 2010 and pops this dialog box with error

could you add the complete exception text?

I found that I get this issue when I debug the application without saving, thinking that VWD will autosave my aspx. Is there any way to set autosave when I debug. But when I give control S and then Debug its working fine with the same port number which I've already specified

it sayd "only site with https:// prefix can be added to trusted sites, when I try to add localhost and I dont have the option at all display as protected...

Try to turn off protected mode

Go to tools, then click on the security tab. Look for a box with a check named 'enabled protected mode', Untick that box and click apply, then restart Internet Explorer.

See this image for where it is

No I dont find any checkboxes present in that security for either of the options like trusted sites restricted sites etc.,I found that I get this issue when I debug the application without saving, thinking that VWD will autosave my aspx. Is there any way to set autosave when I debug. But when I give control S and then Debug its working fine with the same port number which I've already specified.

I think the administrator has blocked the option of turning the protected mode off for the user. Is that the only option to avoid this problem

There seem to be a few other suggestions. e.g.

0 down vote accepted

Tools > Internet Options > Advanced Under the Browsing Section --- Uncheck the "Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer)

Disable automatic crash recovery in IE via 'Internet Options' -> 'Advanced' -> 'Browsing'.

However, if you're being locked down by a group policy you might not be able to change these settings?

CyborgForever 3-Aug-11 7:10am

I've already unchecked those two options which you've mentioned. But I'm unable to uncheck the protected mode off since it has been locked by the admin
