When downloading files, Internet Explorer must create a cache or temporary file. If the option Do not save encrypted pages to disk is selected in the Internet Explorer settings, no cache file is created and the download will fail.

Accounts Receivable uses Internet Explorer to retrieve data for the asset report. Therefore, if you are using another default web browser (such as Google Chrome or FireFox), you will still need to follow the steps below to resolve this issue.

Start Internet Explorer in “Add-On-Free” Mode

Click Start and type Internet Explorer in the Start Search field.
Click Internet Explorer (not an add-on).
You can also open the “Run” box from the menu, type the following command line argument, then press Enter: iexplore.exe -extoff.
Internet Explorer opens without add-ons, toolbars or plug-ins.
Test Internet Explorer to make sure it works properly and that you can download files.
If necessary, go to Internet Options > Manage Add-ons and enable or disable each add-on to determine which one is causing problems.
