IE plays flv, while Chrome plays mp4.

Line #16 is for IE. You should not put 'https://app.cicscanada.com' before the file path '/video/english/homepage/...', otherwise, IE would not play the video.

Line #2 is for Chrome. You have to put 'https://app.cicscanada.com' before the file path '/video/english/homepage/...', otherwise, Chrome would not play the video.

Symptoms

---

When you double-click an icon or file name for a Microsoft Excel workbook, Excel starts but displays a blank screen where you expect the file to appear.

Resolution

---

To resolve this problem, try the following methods, as appropriate, in the given order.

Hide all

Method 1: Ignore DDE

This problem may occur if the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) check box in Excel options is selected.

When you double-click an Excel workbook in Windows Explorer, a dynamic data exchange (DDE) message is sent to Excel. This message instructs Excel to open the workbook that you double-clicked.

If you select the "Ignore" option, Excel ignores DDE messages that are sent to it by other programs. Therefore, the DDE message that is sent to Excel by Windows Explorer is ignored, and Excel does not open the workbook that you double-clicked.

To correct this setting, follow these steps:

1. On the Tools menu, click Options.
2. Click the General tab.
3. Clear the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) check box, and then click OK.

Note For more information about how to turn off DDE, see the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

211494 "There was a problem sending the command to the program" error in Excel

If these steps do not resolve the problem, go to Method 2.

Method 2: Repair User Experience Virtualization (UE-V)

If you are running Update User Experience Virtualization (UE-V), install hotfix 2927019. To do this, see the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

2927019 Hotfix Package 1 for Microsoft User Experience Virtualization 2.0

If you are not sure whether you are running UE-V, examine the program list in the Programs and Features item in Control Panel. An entry for “Company Settings Center” indicates that you are running UE-V.

If these steps do not resolve the problem, go to Method 3.

Method 3: Reset file associations

To check whether the file associations in the system are performing correctly, reset the Excel file associations to their default settings. To do this, follow the steps for your operating system.

Windows 8

1. On the Start screen, type Control Panel.
2. Click or tap Control Panel.
3. Click Default Programs, and then click Set your default programs.
4. Click Excel, and then click Choose default for this program.
5. On the Set Program Associations screen, click Select All, and then click Save.

Windows 7

1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2. Click Default Programs.
3. Click Associate a file type or protocol with a specific program.
4. Select Microsoft Excel Worksheet, and then click change program.
5. Under Recommended Programs, click Microsoft Excel.
6. If Excel does not appear in this list, click Browse, locate the Excel installation folder, click Excel.exe, and then click Excel.

If these steps do not resolve the problem, go to Method 4.

Method 4: Repair Office

Try to repair your Office programs. To do this, follow the steps for your installation type and operating system.

For an Office 365 Click-to-Run installation

Windows 8

1. On the Start screen, type Control Panel.
2. Click or tap Control Panel.
3. Under Programs, click or tap Uninstall a program.
4. Click or tap Microsoft Office 365, and then click or tap Change.
5. Click or tap Online Repair, and then click or tap Repair. You may have to restart your computer after the repair process is finished.

For an Office 2013, Office 2010, or Office 2007 installation

To repair Office 2013, Office 2010, or Office 2007, follow the steps in the following Office website topic:

Repair Office programs

If these steps do not resolve the problem, go to Method 5.

Method 5: Turn off add-ins

Excel and COM add-in programs can also cause this problem. These two kinds of add-ins are located in different folders. For testing, disable and isolate the conflict by turning off each add-in one at a time. To do this, follow these steps:

1. On the File menu, click Options, and then click Add-Ins.
2. In the Manage list at the bottom of the screen, select COM Add-Ins item, and then click Go.
3. Clear one of the add-ins in the list, and then click OK.
4. Restart Excel by double-clicking the icon or file name for the workbook that you are trying to open.
5. If the problem persists, repeat steps 1-4, except select a different add-in in step 3.
6. If the problem persists after you clear all the COM Add-ins, repeat steps 1-4, except select Excel Add-Ins in step 2, and then try each of the Excel add-ins one at a time in step 3.

If Excel loads the file, the add-in you last turned off is causing the problem. If this is the case, we recommend that you visit the manufacturer's website for the add-in to learn whether an updated version of the add-in is available. If a newer version of the add-in is not available, or if you don’t have to use the add-in, you can leave it turned off.

If Excel does not open the file after you turn off all the add-ins, the problem has a different cause.

If these steps do not resolve the problem, go to Method 6.

Method 6: Disable hardware acceleration

To work around this problem, disable hardware acceleration until a fix is released by your video card manufacturer. Make sure to check regularly for updates to your video card driver.

To disable hardware acceleration, follow these steps:

1. Start any Office 2013 program.
2. On the File tab, click Options.
3. In the Options dialog box, click Advanced.
4. In the list of available options, select the Disable hardware graphics acceleration check box.
   
   The following screen shot shows this option in Excel.
5. Click OK.

Note For more information about hardware acceleration, see the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

If you still experience this problem after you try all these methods, contact Microsoft Support for additional troubleshooting help.
