Do you have Firefox installed also? And have the Flash plugin for that installed as well? If not, you might try installing that as well anyway. I see all kinds of people with your problem, all links to answers are at the Gameranger forum, which you can only access if you have Gameranger installed.

Also, make sure Flash is enabled in IE (which version of IE do you have?)

I wondered why clicking on the Gameranger Forum did nothing for me...
I think you just explained it !

Do you have Gameranger installed? It may help to install IE10 or IE11 too.

It seems that they don't know why the problem happens for some people:
GameRanger-IE8.png

You really should update IE too. Even if you don't use it - update it.

I was able to get GameRanger to run using an old version of Flash.
Then I updated to the latest version of Flash and GameRanger still worked.

However, if I start with a clean install on the latest version, GameRanger fails to start.

Yep - like A Guy said, you need Flash for other browsers.

Your problem looks like it could be to do with Game Ranger install options.

Take a look at this screenshot from VLC installer and see if it rings a bell:

Web Plugin.jpg

If these checkboxes are not selected on installation it's not possible to use VLC to play video through a browser.

I suspect that this might be the issue for your software.

Other than that it sometimes helps to remove flash player using the removal tool from adobe then clean install flash player.

You'd need to follow all of the steps listed here:

https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html

Most people just run the uninstaller and forget the rest of the instuctions.

It's possible that your settings for Active X controls in IE are wrong. You could try resetting them to defaults.

I solved the problem.

Go to Adobe Flash Player Install for all versions and select your operating system. Then from the version dropdown menu select the one for Firefox, even if you do not have it. Download and install it.
This solved my problem, hope it solved yours too.
