Updating the ActiveX control and the plug-in

If FH Web Edition was deployed through a Web browser’s Add-on manager, users should launch a Web browser to access a FH Web Edition Web server. The Web pages install and update the Web clients as long as the user has sufficient rights to install browser add-ons. If users have power-user rights, are running the ActiveX Control, and connect to a FH Web Edition server with an updated client, the ActiveX control updates automatically.

If the user does not have sufficient rights to install browser add-ons (the user is running Internet Explorer and is not an administrator or power user), the client should be installed using the FH Web Edition Client Setup Program.

Users who install the plug-in with Mozilla Firefox can update the plug-in through Firefox’s Add-on manager.

Note: The Firefox plug-in update feature does not work if you install the native Windows Client. It only works when the Web client is installed through the Web browser page.

  1. In Firefox, choose Tools → Add-ons.
  2. Click Find Updates.
  3. Install the update.
