The current webpage is trying to open a site in your trusted site list.

Question

_{Wednesday, August 8, 2018 3:12 PM}

Hello Everyone,

I have one Active Directory structure and recently I add some sites to trusted site intranet zone on the Company policies.

When my customers trying to access one of the sites in the list the message, "the current webpage is trying to open a site in your trusted site list. do you want to allow this?", appears as pop-up.

I've set the 'Websites in less privileged web content zone can navigate into this zone' as enable, but the message still pop.
Have I missed something?

Thanks

Hi Lima，

From my test, the reason why you get the warning is because the web sites from less privileged zones can't open new windows in trusted zone. Please try to configure the gpo

Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Internet Control Panel\Security Page\Trusted Sites Zone

Web sites in less privileged Web content zones can navigate into this zone

Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Internet Control Panel\Security Page\Locked-Down Trusted Sites Zone

Web sites in less privileged Web content zones can navigate into this zone

If it helps, it is appreciated that you can mark it as an answer.

I shall suggest you to reset IE first.

Reboot.

Now reconfigure again:

In Internet Explorer, click Tools > Internet Options.
Click the Security Tab.
Click Trusted Sites.
Click Custom Level.
Scroll down to where it says Websites in less privileged web content zone can navigate into this zone.
Put a checkmark beside Enable.

Hi,

Did other domain joined machine have the same issue?

Here is what I configured:

1. Open group policy management, and locate at 

User Settings -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Internet Explorer -> Internet Control Panel -> Security Page  

In the right pane, double click the policy "site to zone assignment list" 

Value name = https://www.bing.com

value =  2

Then deploy the policy to domain client. From my test the security message has not pop up. Is it possible that policy conflict or the value name you configured will be blocked? If you install any 3-party software, please uninstall it. If it is convenient, you can reset IE on one client machine , and try again

Hi，

So all the domain users have the same problem, I am thinking that it may be affected with the policy conflict. Since from my test, I create a gpo, which contains only one policy and deploy to client machine, it works successfully.

So it is suggested that you can create a new domain account, with no other domain policy linked, then link it to the IE policy, checking the result.

Hi @vivian_zhou,

That is what I did. I created a new GPO on a OU who are not covered by other gpo.

On the test above, if I insert the https://www.office.com, the message don't pop, the thing is,  If every time a message pop I need to insert the website on the trusted sites, I will became insane.

After a deep inspection over my policies I found a policy who had a template active. That policy for some reason was not listed when I try a GPResult. On this template the Web sites in less privileged Web content zones can navigate into this zone is setup to prompt.

So that's the problem.

Thanks for your help.
