Save Target As and Print Target Commands Are Unavailable
This article was previously published under Q176316
When you right-click a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) link in Microsoft Internet Explorer, the
Save Target As and
Print Target commands may be unavailable. In addition, when you click
Print on the
File menu, the
Print All Linked Documents check box may be unavailable.
This behavior can occur if Content Advisor is enabled.
To work around this behavior, use one of the following methods:
Method 1
Disable Content Advisor by following these steps in Internet Explorer:
- In Internet Explorer 4, on the View menu, click Internet Options.
In Internet Explorer 5, Interntet Explorer 5.5 and Internet Explorer 6, on the Tools menu, click Internet Options. - Click the Content tab.
- Under Content Advisor, click Disable.
- In the Password box, type the supervisor password, and then click OK.
- When you receive the following prompt, click OK:
Content Advisor has been turned off. Make sure you turn it on again before you allow someone else to use your computer.
Method 2
Click the HTML link to load the Web page, and then on the
File menu, click
Save As or
Print. This method assumes that the Web page successfully passes through Content Advisor.
This behavior is by design.
When Content Advisor is enabled, you can save or print a Web page only
after it passes through Content Advisor. You cannot save or print a Web
page by right-clicking an HTML link and then clicking
Save Target As or
Print Target, because this method bypasses Content Advisor.
NOTE: Content Advisor settings apply to all users on the local computer and cannot be changed by users who are not administrators on the local computer (Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 only). You cannot create different Content Advisor settings for different users on the same computer. If you did not enable Content Advisor and share a computer with multiple users, contact the other users to see if they enabled Content Advisor.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
