nsane.forums Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Almost, but not quite, identical to the Windows 8 version.Four months after Microsoft released Internet Explorer 10 with and for Windows 8, Redmond has finally released a version of the company's newest browser for Windows 7 users in 95 other languages too. More than 700 million people now have access to the company's most up-to-date browser.The new browser will be available as an optional update immediately. Anyone with the release preview installed will have it sent as an "important" update. That's significant because Windows Update will, in its default configuration, install it silently and automatically. Over the coming months, Microsoft will classify Internet Explorer 10 as "important" in more and more markets to ensure it is installed automatically as widely as possible.This marks a significant change from Microsoft's past practices. Traditionally, the company has released new browsers only as optional updates, and further, as interactive updates that required clicking through a EULA before installation actually took place. In late 2011, the company changed this policy, converting Internet Explorer 9 to an automatic ("important") update.Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 7 will be near-identical to its Windows 8 counterpart. This includes features such as support for the Pointer Events touch API and hardware acceleration using Direct2D and DirectWrite. To that end, installing Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 7 requires the installation of a platform update that brings Windows 7's version of these APIs in line with Windows 8.The controversial Do Not Track feature intended to reduce the ability of companies to track user behavior online will also be enabled by default.There will be one important difference between the versions, however. Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 8 includes an embedded version of Flash that gets its updates from Windows Update, rather than through Adobe's installer. On Windows 7, Flash will not be embedded. Instead, it will use the same ActiveX plugin as Internet Explorer 9 did. Updates will have to be installed using Adobe's updater, not Microsoft's.View: Original Article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiLmEgZ Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I guess Windows 7 lovers can rejoice somewhat now since IE10 was Windows 8 exclusive since Win8's launch (and before that time of course as well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ck_kent Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 F*cking IE10, it messed the display of my Outlook Web Access. I had to use Compatibility View to fix it. It was alright in IE9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashish Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 There are differences between IE10 for Windows 7 and for Windows 8, all of which involve touch-related APIs. For example, IE10 on Windows 7 will not fire certain DOM events, such as MSPointerHover, MSPointerMove, MSGestureStart, MSGestureTap, and MSManipulationStateChanged. IE10 for Windows 7 also doesn't support certain CSS scrolling, zooming, and touch properties, as well as aria-haspopup, a DOM property supported on Windows 8 that simulates mouse hover functionality in touch-based scenarios.Another difference: Windows 7 users get to keep ClearType font smoothing*, while it's gone in IE10 for Windows 8.It's good they have kept out the touch related Shit in Win 7 version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insanedown58 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 IE 10 is faster and more fluid so the Advertising of IE 10 being Fast and Fluid is partially correct but the one where it says "Chrome users....try out IE 10", now that's just taking it too far. The one below it is partially correct and the last one is true. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/download-ie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
