View Source doesn’t work in IE8 or IE9

Problem

Nothing happens when you select View Source option in Internet Explorer.

Solution

This happend to me after upgrading from IE8 to IE9 – the View Source option just stopped working. Deleting Temporary Files via IE options menu did not help. The FIX – navigate to “C:\Users\[Your User Name]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Low\Content.IE5\” folder and remove all files/folders including index.dat file. Make sure you can see hidden files/folders when you do that. Also note the [Low] section of the path.
