There is a bug in Server Manager for disabling Internet Explorer Enhanced Security that goes back 7+ years and is still present in Windows Server 2019. If Enhanced Security is not disabled as your first step on connecting to the server, when you later add new users, they are stuck on Enhanced Security. Several infuriating websites suggest all you need to do is go to Server Manager, click Local Server, then IE Enhanced Security Configuration and turn it off. The problem is that in many cases, it already is off. An additional frustration is that if you come in via remote desktop and connect to a domain, unless you have administrative rights over the local computer, you won't be able to turn it off, or if it is off in Server Manger, IE will still show it is in enhanced security mode.

Some users suggest hacking into the registry, but I found this solution:

1) If you don't have administrative rights over the local machine for the user who is stuck in IE Enhanced Security, add those in. This might require a log in to the local machine with administrative rights, then START...Edit Local Users and Groups..Click on Groups, Click on Administrators, right click Add to Group... and add in the domain\user you want to fix as a member of Administrators. Now log out, log in as the user who is stuck in IE Enhanced Security. Remember that if you add a user to Administrators, you must log out and back in again for that change to take effect.

2) You should now be logged into Windows Server with administrative rights. You can click on IE and show that you are in Enhanced Security mode. You can do START...Server Manager..Local Server, and see the Microsoft bug where IE Enhanced Security is turned off, even though it obviously is on.

3) Don't despair. Instead, turn ON Enhanced Security by clicking on the link. Yes, do the opposite of what you want to accomplish.

4) Close and open IE. Show you are still stuck in Enhanced Security. Close IE again.

5) Now, in Server Manager, click on the IE Enhanced Security and turn it OFF.

6) Re-open IE and show that now, finally, Enhanced Security has been turned off.

Some users suggest just using Chrome or Firefox, but the problem for developers is that the WebBrowser object runs off Internet Explorer with IE's security features. Enhanced Mode must be disabled for that software to work.
