Options greyed out

H

I'm using IE7. Recently I can't save web pages with IE, because the option is
greyed out, along with work offline, show menu bar and some others.

I have tried,

Emptying the browser cache,
Resetting security settings,
Enabling, then disabling Content Control,
And resetting IE from Tools > Internet Options > Advanced Tab

None of this worked, any suggestions?

Well, yes, but you neglected to state your IE version, your full Windows
version, and what options are greyed-out in your new thread.
