MattHiggs Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Hello all. I, like many of you more likely than not, recently upgraded (if you can call it that 😦) to the windows 11 operating system. Unfortunately, it seems that microsft is offically discontinuing Internet Explorer in windows 11, and since AutoIT's capability to automate the internet uses Internet explorer com objects, I was wondering if there was any official replacement for the IE udf in the works. And if not, then I wanted to discuss other technologies/methods which could be implemented in autoit that would restore the lost capabilities. Thanks. https://www.theverge.com/2021/6/25/22550714/microsoft-windows-11-internet-explorer-disabled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianni Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) have you already tried this post? (www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/204362-microsoft-edge-webview2-embed-web-code-in-your-native-application/) it cannot be considered a replacement for IE, but it could come close; and of course the WebDriver? (www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/191990-webdriver-udf-w3c-compliant-version-08312021/) P.S. I'm curious to know if the "BrowserControl" remains active on WIN11 (I think I hope so), could you please try to run this script (www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/186422-who-is-who-a-little-dragdrop-game/) or this other (www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/206853-aquarium/) on win11 and see if they work? Thanks a lot in advance Edited October 21, 2021 by Chimp  Chimp small minds discuss people average minds discuss events great minds discuss ideas.... and use AutoIt....

Subz Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Microsoft intends to support IE mode until 2029 (we use IE mode within Edge Chromium for some legacy software), have AutoIt code that uses a number of IE functions, including IE embedded and everything appears to be working correctly still. mLipok, Musashi and Gianni 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subz Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 IE will still be around until 2029, except you need to use IE mode within Edge, there are a number of legacy apps like SharePoint 2013 which are EOL next year, that still require activex components, in IE mode, Edge just embeds the window. Several years ago I wrote an Outlook signature tool, which uses the IE UDF for previewing the users signature within a custom GUI prior to creating the signature, had hoped that the tool would die with Win11 so I no longer had to support it but unfortunately it is still used company wide with both Win10 and Win11 clients.
