Successfully Right Click Web Pages That Don't Allow Right Clicks

How you can right-click a webpage (e.g. to save pictures) that usually displays an error like 'Right-click not allowed' or 'Please subscribe to do this action' when you try to right-click.

Steps

  1. In Internet Explorer, click Tools -> Internet Options.
  2. Click on the Security tab of Internet Explorer then click the Restricted Sites zone.
  3. Click the Sites... button and enter the URL of the website you would like to allow right-clicking on (e.g. http://www.clipart.com).
  4. Click the Add button.
  5. Click the OK button on the Restricted Sites dialog box.
  6. Click the OK button on the Internet Options dialog box.
  7. Visit the site and you should now be able to right-click content on the site.

Tips

  • You can also merely disable the JavaScript on your browser.
    • Go to 'options' in your browser (or settings).
    • Un-check 'enable JavaScript'.
    • Reload page.
    • You should now be able to right click on the page (but this might also have other effects on the page function and performance).

Warnings

  • You may need to reset the security settings for the Restricted Sites tab if the settings have been changed. In the Internet Options dialog box, under the Security tab, click the Restricted sites zone and click Default Level. Then click OK.
