QVplugin 11, not installing / available as option on access point

adamdavi3s — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi All,

This is probably a really really stupid question... however....

I've just tried to install the QVplugin on my local machine, I did have 9 installed but I removed it and took the 11 exe from our server.

When I run this, it installs QVpluginsetup which is visible in control panel. I was expecting just to see QVplugin in there as per the version 9, not with 'setup' attached to it as this implies there is further setup required?

When I go to the access point, I am only getting the full browser option, the plugin is not an option there....

Ask you QV admin to enable IE plugin option for the document.

Hi There,

I am the QV admin and the IE plugin is the default on all of our documents.

If I re-install the version 9 plugin, everything performs fine

Hi,

Sometime the users are facing this kind of problem due to:-

1. The previous version of plgin is not uninstalled completely (Uninstall the plugin version installed in your system , using control panal, sometime you will see two plugin is installed , so remove both).
2.Install the new version.

3. If the probe still continue then you need to unistall the Qlikvew client and reinstall both plugin and client again.

Thanks,

hi,

Yes it sems that there is somthing wrong with the instaler. Kindly try to download the setup again and install it.

1. Extract the .msi file from the installer .exe file. Install the plugin via the .exe installer and then do a search for QvPluginSetup.msi The file should be located somewhere in the file directory.

Thanks,

Hi DJ,

If I pick up the MSI from

C:\Users\daviea0r\AppData\Local\QlikTech Installations\{BDA9BC4B-04F3-4F3E-8C68-B48FFEECF99D}

Then I get exactly the same installer with the same issues.

Is it possible to download just the plugin installer from Qlikview now? I thought since v9 it was only distributed as part of the server download & install?

Hi,

I am not sure wehter it is present in the Qlikview site or not. But if you have accesspoint age then the link should be present there and you can download from there.

Please try :- After installation of plgin kindly try to register the .dll (there will be two .dl file) file by executing fllowing script in command prompt.

Thanks,

Hi,

Please also taking consideration about the issue of Microsoft Installer where QV Plugin require newer version of MS Installer to work correctly.

Hi Adam,

One more thing , are you using window 8 version in your system. In case if you are using the window 8 version than you will face this roblem because version 8 is not supporting this till QV 11 SR 1.

Thanks,

Hi Both,

I am using a win7 x64 machine but we have tried an x86 also.

The MS installer hasn't prompted me for any updates so I assume it is the latest one.

I might have to get the latest server download and see if I can extract the plugin from that, its very strange!

Hi Adam,

Just for your information after some verification have been done on my environment. I will still have the "Internet Explorer Plugin" option available on Access Point even without QVPlugin installed.

Meanwhile, the newer version of QV Plugin's installed program name is "QVPluginSetup" and it's working perfectly for me.

Try to check through your QV Server and Client 's event log for any error being logged.

Kho

Hi Adam,

do you have access to the QlikView Management Console?

If yes, check the box "Show Link" in QlikView Web Servers:

As you know, there is no need to have the PlugIn for users which have the "fat client".

Users without the fat client should use the link (visible on the access point) to install only the PlugIn.

Regards

Dieter

Hi Kho,

Thank you that is really useful!

Its very strange, I can't understand why it does work if I roll back to version 9 but I will have a look through everything!

Hi Dieter,

Thank you, downloading the plugin is not a problem, I can get it from the access point link and I have also taken a copy of it directly from the folder on the server

The issue seems to be with the install but I will continue to play!

Are you using the IE X64? That might be your problem.

Hi Bill,

I tried on IE x64, it work as normal. Yet even more faster than x86's IE due to bigger memory allocation.

Hi,

could you please point out how I can enable the IE plugin option, i.e. where inside the QMC.
And does this directly affect the way in which I open it from Access Point; do I have to select 'open with IE plugin' or something similar?
