I am encountering an issue with a website that is built on Adobe AEM 5.6.1 and checks for localStorage accessibility. The problem arises when I try to access the site from the Desktop version of IE11 on an HP Elite Pad 900 running Windows 8.1 Pro, as it results in an "Access Denied" error. However, when using the metro mode version of IE11 on the same device, the website works perfectly.
The website also functions without any issues on two other computers within our environment - one being a native PC and the other running on VirtualBox on my Mac.
Although I understand that local HTML files do not have permission to access localStorage, this particular website is hosted on our server.
What could potentially be causing the difference in access rights and security settings for the browser that is not functioning correctly? Is there a way to programmatically check this using JavaScript?
