Hi,
We have trouble viewing TestStand XML reports on Windows 10 machines. We are using ATML 6.01 report format and "tr6_expand.xsl" style sheet. The reports are shown on Windows 7 machines with no problem. We have already tried using Office XML Handler, Microsoft Edge and lately Opera and Firefox browsers to no success (see attached captures with the errors). Any help would be appreciated.
Best regards,Enrique

TestStand XML reports are currently only supported in Internet Explorer, which should still be available on Windows 10.
One trick I've used to get around this is using the MSXSL Command Line Transformation Utility to transform the XML to HTML, which works in Chrome & Firefox. Command to run the utility looks something like this:
msxsl <report path> <stylesheet path> -o <html report path>
Since it's a command line utility, it's not hard to modify one of the reporting plugins to automatically run this command and generate both XML and HTML reports. On a similar note, you could also enable both the HTML and XML reporting plugins to generate both reports, but this uses more resources on your PC.
Limited browser support for the default stylesheets is something that the TestStand team is aware of and is keeping in mind for future developments.
Hope this helps!

ATML reports can be viewed in EXCEL, I have tried this in Excel 2003.
Excel 2016 pops up an error message that script code in XML is not allowed within current security settings.
I'll try to find a solution for that too.

Hi,
Are you unable to use Internet Explorer to open the reports or are you getting errors with Internet Explorer?

Due to system security settings, we are not allowed to run Internet Explorer.
That's why I was looking for an alternative.
It seems that Excel could be that, the old version (2003) works, with the new version I get security issues as wel, but that may be due to our IT department.
Microsoft describes to keep Internet Explorer "supported" as an IE mode in Edge

Hi,
Please refer to the following public KB to address the question on IE Retirement and to make the TS Report Viewer Utility available for download.
