When working via remote desktop on the Server machine you may encounter the following error message when trying to move or copy a file. “Do you want to move or copy files from this zone”. This message is part of the Internet Explorer Enhance Security Configuration component. It occurs because you are copying from a network share and even though the share is on the same machine, it’s still a share, and subject to this message. If you really don’t want to use/see it, you can remove it. But, consider that it is there to protect your server to potential attacks that can occur through Web content and application scripts.
Removing:
- In Control Panel, open Add or Remove Programs.
- In the left-hand pane, press Add/Remove Windows Components.
- Clear the Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration box in the Components list.
