Qlikview Module Settings - Current Local Security setting not saved

Wed, 23 Jul 2025 14:48:52 GMT

Hello!

In the past days, i've been fighting around with the below bug: Whenever i opened the Edit Module (CTRL+M) and i changed the settings for Current Local Security to "Allow System Access", then saved the changes and closed the file, Qlikview would roll back that setting.

Apparently, there is a bug that will roll back the settings unless you actually change something within the module code. I have added one blank line and then changed the setting, saved, closed the file and when i reopened, it was still there.

Hope this helps, as i couln't find the answer on Community or Internet and it really bugged me.

Have a great day!

I've had a similar problem with the Document Properties settings. Bug or corrupted QVW. Try to use a different QV version to make change and save, it helped in my case.

We have similar problem with Module Security for documents.This window pops up when user opens the report every time from access point. This happens only for a particular user it works find for other.Is there a solution for this.

Very probably will be the reason a security setting, for example if users have disabled ActiveX all macros which need them like createobject() statements for exporting/mailing will be fail.

I'm not sure - I believe it was Ctrl + m or Ctrl + Shift + m and yes this could be a reason, too but within the answer above I meant global system settings - mostly configured by the IE settings, but they are global.
