The strange part was it worked ok for one user but not for another.  And it was driving my wife (the user with the problem) crazy!

The key was that the file type association was missing for the user with the problem.  I tried to add it through &quot;folder options&quot; but it would not &quot;stick&quot; even though the user was an administrator.

I tried to edit the registry manually (as the problem user) and found that I could not edit the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.htm (or .html) registry keys.  It said I didn&#039;t have permission!  By going back to the user that didn&#039;t have the problem I found that the registrey key permissions were wrong (excluding everyone but the working user).  When I set them back to something normal (using a nearby registry key as a template) everything worked again.

I have no idea how this all happened, and can&#039;t imagine that this is what is causing other people&#039;s grief, but it&#039;s worth a look.<br/><br/>

In most cases registering the DLL's fixed the problem, but in one case received an error when trying to register mshtml.dll that an entry load point was not found and the DLL does not load (something to that effect).  What fixed the problem was using the Set Program Access Controls from the Start Menu (or top of All Programs list) and changing Default Browser to IE.  After doing this Print/Preview no longer in html code.<br/><br/>

However, setting IE as the default browser worked perfectly.

Note: The browser only began to print HTML code after installing Tiscali settings.<br/><br/>

Please click on Start, Click on Run and type the following in the open box and click OK

regsvr32 jscript.dll

regsvr32 vbscript.dll

regsvr32 /i shdocvw.dll

There is a space between regsvr32 and /i and shdocvw.dll

regsvr32 /i mshtml.dll

There is a space between regsvr32 and /i and mshtml.dll

Then tried the steps:


Open Internet Explorer Click on tool and select Internet options

Under General tab and click on Accessibility button

Check the box "Ignore font styles specified on Webpages" and "Ignore font sizes specified on Webpages" and click on OK.

Click on OK

Then close Internet Explorer

Then set IE as default:

Click Start, and then click Control Panel.

Click Add or Remove Programs

Click on Set Program Access and Defaults.

Select the Custom pull down list

expand the Custom section by clicking on the down arrow

In the Choose a default Web browser: section, choose Internet Explorer, then Select the "enable access to this program checkbox"

if you could not select ""enable access to this program checkbox", just select Internet Explorer and click OK

Close all Internet Explorer window and try again.

It worked for me.!!!

If the OS is Vista, you may try disabling Protected Mode

 Follow the steps below to disable protected mode:

       -Open Internet Explorer 7. 
       -Select Tools. 
       -Select Internet Options. 
       -Select the Security tab. 
       -Select the Internet zone. 
       -Uncheck Enable Protected Mode. 
       -Select OK. 

It worked.!!!<br/><br/>

Under Tools-->Internet Options--> Programs Tab, I made IE the default browser as suggested above.  Also the "Default HTML editor" field was blank.  I used MS Publisher.

This is probably just anecdotal evidence, but try making sure there is a program in that field.  Hope this helps someone.<br/><br/>
