    copied!<p>Here is the solution (and I've been to every corner of the Internet in order to get this):</p> <p>Fire up <code>RegEdit</code> and go to this key:</p> <pre><code>HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-18\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones </code></pre> <p>On my machine (Windows 7) the Local System account is <code>S-1-5-18</code>. This might be the same for all versions of Windows, but I don't know about that.</p> <p>In that registry key, there are five more keys 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 - each representing a Zone. </p> <p>For every zone, if there is a DWORD value with the name "2500", set its value to 0 to turn protected mode off. Note that you don't have to add it if it isn't there. </p> <p>The value "2500" is supposed to control the tick box "Enable protected mode".</p> <p><strong>UPDATE (from an anon user):</strong></p> <p>A graphical way of doing the same is to ensure the "Interactive Services Detection" service (UI0Detect) is running (note that Windows 8/2012 and later need the <code>HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows\NoInteractiveServices</code> registry key to be set correctly in order for the popup to appear) get hold of <code>psexec</code> and run</p> <pre><code>psexec -si 0 "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" </code></pre> <p>In the popup click on View the message, then after the screen switches in Internet Explorer go to Tools -> Internet options | Security and check the Security level for each zone.</p> <p>Happy UI testing!</p>
