If you intend to access your Dahua device via the web browser, it’s necessary to install the plugin and enable ActiveX controls. This plugin allows the browser to fully access the Dahua IP camera, DVR, or NVR.

These instructions are valid for Internet Explorer only, the other browsers such as Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari don’t support the ActiveX controls which means you can’t access your system. If you type the IP address of the device on the browser, the login screen will show but it will say “failed” or “error” once you enter your credentials. Rainmeter big sur skin installer.

For users of Windows 10, it’s important to make sure that you’re using Internet Explorer (and not Microsoft Edge). Although both these browsers are made by Microsoft, they’re different. The plugin works on Internet Explorer only, doesn’t get installed on Microsoft Edge (they block the controls).

Internet Explorer is the blue E with the gold ring around it. If you can’t find it, simply type “Internet Explorer” on the Window’s search bar.

Step 3. In the security, settings window scroll down until you see ActiveX controls and plug-ins. Disable ActiveX filtering, set Download signed ActiveX controls to prompt, and set Download unsigned ActiveX controls to prompt (same as shown on the image below). Click OK to close the pop-up. Make sure to click Apply and OK on the Internet options pop-up.
Step 4. In this step, type the full IP address for your IP camera or recorder (for example http://192.168.1.108 or http://hostname.dyns.com) in the address (URL) bar at the top of the browser. When prompted, install the plug-ins in order that they appear. Once installed, refresh the page and log in using your username and password. If the plugin doesn’t work, check the next section.

Fix: Dahua Plugin Failed to Install

Sometimes the plugin is installed but you still get prompted to install the plugin. Or it looks like it went through, but when you log in it says “no plugin installed”. If that’s the case, it means the plugin wasn’t installed properly.

Dahua Internet Explorer Plugin

Most of the time this issue is caused by having multiple plugins installed on the computer. Each Dahua camera, NVR, DVR requires a specific plugin and when you have all of them installed, you may stumble upon a so-called “plugin conflict”.

To fix this issue you need to delete the plugins manually. This will allow for a fresh and proper install. To avoid any permission issues when deleting the plugins, ensure the Internet Explorer is completely closed.

We need to find the plugin folder and have it deleted. Usually, web plugins are located in the (C:) drive under program files and program files(x86) on 64 bit systems. Usb el capitan installer.

Open My Computer or “This PC” and double click on the (C:) drive. First, navigate to C:Program Files and look for webrec or Webplugin.exe. If either folder is located here, delete it. Look for the same two folders in C:Program Files (x86) and delete either of them if located there.
Once the plugin folders are deleted, go again through steps 1 to 3, then reinstall the plugins or install them the first time. Try to login again and check if you can see the live pictures or even playback.
