The options are Let Internet Explorer decide, Always in Internet Explorer, and Always in Internet Explorer on the desktop.

There, you can configure what browser will start if you click a link in an application. On the Programs tab, you’ll find the pull-down menu Choose how you open links. If you only have to configure a couple of PCs or users, you can change the settings in the Control Panel’s Internet Options.

The good news is that, if you prefer to only work with the desktop application, you can change the default Windows 8 settings in the Control Panel or through Group Policy. Moreover, the IE app has only a very simplistic favorites interface. However, in many cases, users need additional extensions. The shortcoming of this “add-on–free experience” (as Microsoft calls it) is mitigated by the fact that the IE app comes with integrated Flash support. First of all, the app version of IE doesn’t support the plugins and ActiveX controls of the desktop version. In addition to these preferences in taste, valid reasons exist to avoid using the browser in the modern interface.

On a PC, with a mouse, the minimalistic app version might not be the best choice, and the full screen display with its bulky address bar at the bottom needs some getting used to.

Limitations of the IE 10 / IE 11 appĮven though this behavior follows a certain logic, you don’t have to live with these settings. Whether they improve these glitches or not, I'm moving to the main concourse of Mozilla.Likewise, if you click a link in a desktop application such as Word, Windows will start the conventional IE edition, whereas hyperlinks in a modern app (the mail app, for instance) open the web page in the app version of Internet Explorer 10. This is not to mention the fact that some buttons on websites simply do not work on IE9 - when this happened with random links it's frustrating, when it occurs with Paypal, my Bank's website and the like it's frankly unbearable.

It's more than a little frustrating that the top of the page or article gets shown and as you scroll down it all gets fudged out. I don't understand why they would let any version, beta or not, be released whereby such universal websites as Amazon, Wikipedia and Googlemaps DON'T LOAD PROPERLY. I 'upgraded' from IE8 to IE9 around a week ago and I've now reach my limit - I'm abandoning ship too. So, out of the kindness of my heart I have stuck by IE when all else haven jumped ship to Mozilla. Silly to call the Microsoft money-making power house an underdog, but it seems to be a fallen giant, and always got the flak for everything that goes wrong. I have always stuck by Microsoft because I tend to favour the underdog. Watch out: the browser wars just got exciting again.īy Anonymous reviewed on November 13, 2010 In all, the latest version of Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 is faster and prettier than its predecessors - and really throws down the gauntlet to its competitors. New features like hang recovery and InPrivate Filtering provide Internet Explorer a stabler and more secure web experience than most other browsers. IE 9 features decent support for HTML 5 (the new generation of media-rich websites use this language), and now finishes the Acid 3 test with a near-perfect 95/100. Internet Explorer 9 also offers improved speed and performance, as well as better compliance with web standards and new technologies. The new Performance Advisor add-on identifies add-ons that are slowing Internet Explorer down (a feature badly needed in Mozilla Firefox). IE 9 also lets you 'pin' websites to the Superbar and allows you to bookmark your favorite websites as 'applications' in your OS. Among the new features included in Internet Explorer 9 are better integration with the Windows operating system and a seriously beefed-up security system.
