    Hi Matt,

    You are right, Support for Microsoft Internet Explorer is removed as of Cognos Analytics 11.2.0. Microsoft Edge Chromium is now the only supported Microsoft web browser.

    You need to enable legacy studio. Go to Manage > Configuration > System, and select Appearance. Launch Cognos legacy UI should be enabled.

    You shoud use Firefox to be sure to be Query Studio.

    Note: from IBM Cognos Analytics on Premises 11.2.x: Supported Software Environments, click on Prerequisite software then Supported software (to see web browsers).

    Best regards,

    Hi Patrick 

    Yes I agree with your statements but with 11.2.4 the above changes do not work because of the underlying code is blocking the above steps.

    I have tried this as well

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <configuration xmlns:crn="http://www.cognos.com/2005/CRN">
    <crn:properties>
    <property name="RSVP.ENABLE.LEGACY_VIEWER" value="true"/>
    <property name="RSVP.ENABLE.QUERY_STUDIO" value="true"/>
    <property name="RSVP.BROWSER.DETECT" value="false"/>
    </crn:properties>

    <environment>
    <!-- your existing environment settings -->
    </environment>
    </configuration>

    in the cogstartup 

    as I still have users that will not move off the 32 bit program

    Matt,

    I don't know RSVP.ENABLE.QUERY_STUDIO=true, it looks like a ChatGPT parameter. It is not in the IBM Documentation.

    Be sure to add a few users in the Query users role:

    Is it a production server? Or just a test with an Easy Install of Cognos Analytics?

    Hi Matt,

    Nothing in your previous message is coming from the Product documentation.

    Start with the official product documentation, then ask help in here.

    Best regards,
