Hi James, I have figured out a way to control one of my electronic devices by loading a url with a command for each action, when the link has loaded and the command has ran which is instant I am getting a .json file (its simply a confirmation message of success) attempt to download which I need to either have auto save and download so its off the screen or just open and close (since it has ran the command by the time it appears), other versions of Internet Explorer allowed an option to click and save downloads automatically but latest IE doesn't and I am getting the same prompt with chrome.
I am using a windows 8.1 PC and I have gone through the active x controls and internet security options but can't find a setting that lets the file just save and download. I did try disabling downloads on trusted sites for the url but then I get a prompt telling me downloads are disabled each time it trys to download the .json file, so I just end up replacing one window with another.
I've been searching for 2 days for a solution to it and the closest I have got is this article which basically says create a registry file to just accept the file type (.json in my case from my own trusted domain) automatically but it might as well be in another language to me since I am not a coder.
Surely there has to be an easier way to just get that prompt off the screen. I am using vox to load the command urls through a payload list, but each one gets that prompt I am trying to remove and asks if I want to save or open the .json file.

'Do you want to open or save this file' box they are appreciated.
Attached is an example of the .json file I get prompted to download after each url has loaded and ran a command.
