127.0.0.1 Will not work in IE 11

I have upgraded to Windows 8.1 pro and 127.0.0.1 and my local IP will not resolve to to the IIS 8.5 start page but localhost will.

But it all works in Firefox and Chrome.

I have no idea how to fix this it shows no errors other than this:

This page can’t be displayed

  • Make sure the web address 127.0.0.1 is correct.
  • Look for the page with your search engine.
  • Refresh the page in a few minutes.

Could some one help me figure this out?

Never mind I got it working

I figured it out had to turn off new IE 11 feature "Enable Enhanced Protected mode" Now it seams to work fine

To add a site as trusted site in IE, follow these steps:

  • In Internet Explorer, click Tools, click Internet Options, and then click the Security tab.

  • In the Select a Web content zone to specify its current security settings box, click Trusted Sites, and then click Sites.

  • Disable the Require Server Verification option to add HTTP sites.

  • Here, add http://127.0.0.1, http://<your IP>, hence you can access your local server by these addresses.
