ActiveX is a technology developed by Microsoft that allows software applications to share information and interact with each other. It is used for creating interactive content on web pages and in standalone applications.
ActiveX controls are small programs or plugins that can be embedded within web pages or used in standalone applications. These controls can provide additional functionality or enhance the user experience, such as displaying interactive content, handling form input, or playing multimedia files.
ActiveX controls are generally written in programming languages such as C++, but end-users do not need to have any programming knowledge to use them. They can be downloaded and installed automatically when visiting a website that uses them or manually by downloading and installing them separately.
However, ActiveX controls have been known to have security vulnerabilities and are often targeted by malicious software. As a result, many modern web browsers have limited support for ActiveX controls or have disabled them by default to protect users from potential risks.
