Dear friends, If I visited the admin GUI through IE I got the following error from admin GUI: “! Connection Error” “Syncthing seems to be experiencing a problem processing your request. Please refresh the page or restart Syncthing in the problem persists.” But if I visited the adimin GUI through Chrome everything is fine. My OS is windows 8. What setting could be wrong in my IE? Thank you very much! ---

My IE privacy setting is default “Medium”: third-party cookies could be blocked. If I do not want to change this setting to “Low” or “Accept all cookies”, what should I do to make Syncthing working in IE? Thank you very much! ---

Can’t you add an exception for syncthings address or mark it as trusted? Also, which version of IE? ---

“Medium” should be fine though, so I don’t think that’s the problem. But you could test it. Otherwise check the Javascript error console for any clues, perhaps, as this seems browser specific. ---
