You must install WebView 2 Runtime yourself before you install Cognos Controller. WebView
2 is not part of the Cognos Controller installation package.
Note: WebView 2 Runtime is not applied to Cognos Configuration and Controller Financial Analytics
Publisher. If you want to access the online Help in either of these tools, your default browser
cannot be Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer is
not
supported by IBM Documentation.
Procedure
- Ensure that you meet the system requirements.
- To install WebView2 Runtime, go to the Microsoft web page Download the WebView2 Runtime
(https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/#download-section).
- Under Evergreen Standalone Installer, click the
x64 download button.
- Download and run the installer file
MicrosoftEdgeWebView2RuntimeInstallerX64.exe
Important: You must download the 64-bit version of the installer. Cognos Controller does
not support the 32-bit version.
- Start Controller and press F1.
The WebView2 embedded browser displays the online Help, as expected.
