No working in lasted buildings of windows 10 #1

No work in Internet Explorer 11 and Project Spartan of Windows 10 build 10074.

ie-web-notifications commented 9 years ago

Hi, Thanks a lot for the report and sorry for the delay.

I confirm that it indeed does not work in IE 11 on Win 10 build 10074, it seems some other plugins also don't work there. I will investigate it a little bit later.
Regarding Project Spartan, it does not work and was not working with it because so far there is no information how to create extensions for it.

ie-web-notifications commented 9 years ago

Merely a small update of the investigation status (tried on IE11, win10-x64):

neither 64-bit nor 32-bit version is still even loaded by IE (according to process monitor)
signing of all executables does not help.

However the addon (BHO) is displayed as enabled in Manage Add-ons dialog.

It does not work because IE runs in edge compatibility mode. So far I've managed only one way to change the compatibility mode to IE11 is via Developer Tools (F12) which is valid until Developer tools are opened, so not usable actually.

By the way, it seems using <meta http-equiv="x-ua-compatible" content="IE=10"> (if you are a web site maintainer) does not change the compatibility mode. Note that 10 is used instead of 11 because

Starting with Internet Explorer 11, content values greater than "10" lead to edge mode, which is the highest version supported by the version of Internet Explorer used to view the webpage. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj676915(v=vs.85).aspx.
Adding it to the compatibility list results in IE7 compatibility mode, which is also not usable.

In addition, on my machines Developer tools as well as changing of the compatibility note very often result in crashing of IE, be careful.

It seems one can try to Use Enterprise Mode to improve compatibility to set the compatibility mode for particular site.

It turned out that I was testing on old Windows 10 (build 10158). After manual updating from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 it does work on Windows 10 (build 10240) in IE11 (11.0.10240.16384).

In case you're not aware, MS offer a download of a number of VMs with different IE versions for testing things just like this from http://dev.modern.ie/tools/vms/windows/

Thanks a lot, I know it, but indeed I was not aware that they added Win10 image.

ie-web-notifications commented 9 years ago

Have they added win10 today https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2015/08/17/windows-10-virtual-machines-now-available-on-microsoft-edge-dev/ ?

I think so; it was that blog post that prompted me to add the above comment!
