The reader supports a plugin mode for Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera and Safari, which allows CDF content to be embedded inline in HTML pages. ĬDF reader support is available for Microsoft Windows, Macintosh, Linux and iOS but not for e-book readers or Android tablets. This makes it suitable for scientific, engineering and other technical content and digital textbooks. In contrast to static formats such as PDF and pre-generated interactive content provided by formats such as Adobe Flash the CDF Player contains an entire runtime library of Mathematica allowing document content to be generated in response to user interaction using any algorithms or visualizations which can be described in Mathematica.

The proprietary CDF Player is released with a restricted license, which can be downloaded free of charge from Wolfram Research. May be they solved the problem with this new version. New version of CDF: 11.0.1.1 have been released, I haven't tried it yet. CDF Player is a Computable Document Format viewer developed by Wolfram Research. UPDATE: Was asked by Wolfram technical support to try another CDF file but that too failed, was asked to provide SystemInformation and CDF version number.
