IE Print & Save jscript errors under Vista Home Premium x64

Hi,

I'm experiencing lots of pain with Internet Explorer 7 under Vista Home Premium x64. Any help/pointers would be appreciated.

Ever since I got my new AMD Quad-core PC 3 months ago, I have been struggling with the IE7 that it came pre-installed. Everytime I try to save a webpage, the Save As dialog window would pop up (which is normal), but after I type a filename and hit Save, an error will pop up saying that "The webpage could not be saved to the selected location." , no matter where that location is (any folder). For the longest time, I thought it was something do to with the webpage security stuff. However, when I use my other PC running XP, I can save any webpage to any location with no problem.

Whenever I want to print by clinking on the Print icon, another error message will pop up saying "Missing C:\temp\temp2\???????". The ?????? is whatever temperary filename. The C:\temp\temp2 is my personal temp folder (I didn't use the windows default temp folder).

I can print normally with no problem from any other applications, so it's not my printer driver not installed properly. The same problem happens everytime I try to print.

So there, I cannot print and cannot save any webpages that I want to keep a record of. After lots of researching (with no actual solution), I found out it's because of the Windows jscript error. I thought if that's the case, upgrading IE may help, so I upgraded to the latest IE8 beta 2 (the stable one). But no, it didn't help, and actually made it worse. The same problems still exist. I still cannot print nor save. Now, a new error message comes up with "A Runtime Error has occured. Do you wish to Debug? .... Line:2280 Error: Object required"

If I select Yes to use the built-in script debugger in IE, then the script debugger will show with a pointer pointing at line 2281:

2279 function OnBuildAllFrames(strDoc)
2280 {
2281 if (!g_aDocTree[strDoc] ||
2282 !g_aDocTree[strDoc]._aaRect[1][0] ||
2283 !g_aDocTree[strDoc].aaRect[1][0].contentDocument.body)
2284 {
2285 window.setTimeout("OnBuildAllFrames('" + strDoc + "');", 10
2286 return;
2287 }
2288 g_aDocTree[strDoc].BuildAllFrames();
2289 }
...


Now, with one more problem. With the new IE8 installed, and the error occured, I cannot close IE. The only way to close it is to issue a Ctrl-Alt-Del to bring up TaskManager to end the application.

Can someone give me some assistance or shed some light on this?

Problems solved!! Thanks to some suggested solutions in some other threads. I changed the Security on the temp folder to Full Control, and now printing and saving in IE are working properly.

Now, I have a new question. I don't like the new IE8. Is there a way to uninstall it and revert back to IE7?

I'm having the same problem and I cannot save or print a webpage. I can save and print everything else but not web page. Only if I put the protected mode on OFF I can save and print. Please help because this driving me crazy.
Many thanks,
Yves
