The Document Manager plug-in must be upgraded to support newer browser versions.

Plug-in upgrades are automatic if you are using the Internet Explorer browser. Plug-in upgrades are not automatic if you are using the Firefox browser. To upgrade a plug-in, find your browser and version in the table, then follow the associated upgrade steps.

For non-Windows platforms the plug-in equivalent is a browser applet, which is downloaded into the browser without user-initiated install steps.
