Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 Final Version – First Bugs Found

Same problem with Yahoo! mail resolved after pushing the capability button.

There are some bugs with Tabs also and opening "YouTube Inbox" refreshes the whole page.

Yes it much more faster than IE9, but I'm completely dissatisfied with this product, it's rather beta version than RTM!

- For the user with error i recommend you download a software called diskmax , Run full system clean up including windows update history clean up , I had the same problem as you and after i did that and decided to rerun the installer it worked fine without problem

This is the link : http://www.softpedia.com/get/Security/Secure-cleaning/DiskMax.shtml

So think it's just conflict between windows 7 installed updates and how IE 10 reads them

Good Luck

Installed IE 10 yesterday(2/26/13) if I leave the computer on now and not use it for 2-3 hours windows 7 does not respond anymore,it won't even shut down.How come every computer that I have bought with a windows operating system on it becomes a boat anchor or a door stop after 2-3 years?Got a buddy with a 7 year old Apple still going strong with no problems.I've had 3 POS computers with windows in that same 7 years.I didn't buy cheap computers..........

is very very fast..way faster than chrome :D

Not faster than Chrome, but seems faster. It hides some things. Here is a chart - http://techcrunch.com/2012/11/06/report-internet-explorer-10-is-the-fastest-browser-on-windows-chrome-19-wins-on-mac/new_relic_fastest_browsers/
Chrome version 19 is actually the fastest, which is what I run.

i have installed exp 10 on windows 7 64 bit hp envy laptop

every 5- 10 mins I get bluescreen screen crash

complete mess the right hand navigation bar slider) does not working properly

Is this what passes as journalism or reporting nowadays? Pathetic. Allow me to dissect this stellar piece of reporting...
_______________________
Microsoft officially introduced the final version of Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 yesterday, with the company claiming that it’s one of the best browsers released for this popular operating system.
***(OK...)***

While IE10 indeed seems to be faster than its predecessors on both Windows 7 and Windows 8, our users have already reported the first bugs, revealing that, in some cases, the browser actually does more harm than good.
***(What do you mean by "our users"? ALL of your users? How many users do you have? What percentage of them have reported a problem or problems? How about giving me objective data upon which I can draw my own conclusions about how common or widespread these "bugs" are instead of just your opinion? For example: "Out of xx,xxx site visitors, or visitors who downloaded a program, or visitors who downloaded IE10 from our site, xx of them or x% of them reported a problem... )***

We’ve heard that several users couldn’t install Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 7 machines at all, due to several errors that popped up during installation, and one of our readers confirmed the issue.
***(Again, if I had raw data this would be more useful.... one user confirmed a problem out of a pool of ten....a hundred....a thousand...ten thousand...users? If it's a very large pool of users, then some rumors and one confirmed report of a failed installation are hardly uncommon for ANY application, much less a world-wide release of a browser update. Especially if it's a major revision from the previous version.)***

“I installed IE 10 on a Toshiba Satellite laptop with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit OS with no problems whatsoever. I cannot install it on an HP Pavilion with the same OS as I keep getting bogus errors about not being able to install updates which are either already installed or not applicable. Interesting!” he wrote.
***(I don't doubt it one bit, since just about every Windows-based computer is a unique combination of core and peripheral hardware and installed software. We Windows users often are at the mercy of third-party companies who sometimes code sub-standard drivers (especially if they don't bother with WHQL testing) or applications. Also, many large OEM system builders (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.) use proprietary hardware, proprietary drivers, and/or proprietary applications, and sometimes these programs interact with Windows directly. Sometimes, these OEM applications cannot be uninstalled and/or don't show up as installed programs. Several years back, numerous users of HP-branded computers were unable to update their Windows XP-based computers to SP2 due to such a problem and HP had to step in and formulate a solution.)***

Others, however, said that some services or even the other applications installed on their Windows 7 workstations stopped working after installing Internet Explorer 10.
***(See the prior comment. And without knowing what programs are installed, knowing how good the Windows user is at maintaining his or her system and keeping programs up-to-date (ESPECIALLY browser-specific applications like toolbars, BHO's extensions, etc.) and keeping it free of spyware and/or viruses, a person is making a HUGE assumption that a failed installation or a "bug" is the direct fault of IE10. Every time Firefox updates itself, it checks installed browser extensions for compatibility and just about every time a couple of my extensions get shut down until they release an update - does that count as a "bug"?)***

“I just installed IE10 on my Windows 7 machine, and Chrome no longer navigated to any URLs. Also IE 10 crashes a couple times per minute,” one reader said.

“After installing IE10, my Yahoo mail is no longer working,” another one added.
***(Anything's possible I suppose, but IE10's installation doesn't touch Google Chrome's system files. I'm not sure if IE10 tries to force itself as the default browser or not - sometimes that can cause a problem, but one can easily go into "Default Programs" and re-assert Chrome as the default browser if IE10 does. Also, issues can arise depending on how the person is connected to the internet...through a VPN, proxy server, etc. ...some Windows system settings might be changed during installation.
As for crashing 'a couple of times a minute' - is that even possible? Does the person mean he clicks on it, it crashes immediately, he clicks on it again, same thing? That's the only way I can think of a program crashing that fast. Or, could just be a Microsoft hater. That's the problem with unsubstantiated rumors. As for Yahoo Mail not working....not working how? Can't access page? Page displays wrong? Can't open mail? VAGUE. Again, without further information or troubleshooting, hard to accurately know the details and call this a "bug".)***

While Microsoft delivers the new Internet Explorer 10 browser via Windows Update and all users should get it as soon as they restart their computers, removing this new build and switching back to Internet Explorer 9 isn’t such an easy job.
***(Really? It doesn't require anything special when compared to uninstalling any other system update.)*****

Truth is, experienced users should have absolutely no problem in getting rid of Internet Explorer 10 on a Windows 7 system, but we’ve also created a step by step guide to assist beginners throughout the entire process.

Click here to read the tutorial on how to uninstall Internet Explorer 10 and switch to IE9 on Windows 7.
***(Providing a tutorial is nice, but I see you didn't waste an opportunity to make a snide remark about Windows 8.
You also derided IE10 about a "bug" as follows:
>One of the most common bugs of IE10 on Windows 7 workstations concerns the Aero interface.

According to plenty of posts on Microsoft’s support forums, the Aero interface is automatically disabled after the launch of Internet Explorer 10 and, as far as some users are concerned, there’s no way to restore it.<
(***Well, if you'd cared to look a little farther into the forums concerning this issue, you would have seen that the loss of Aero functionality was NOT an IE10 bug directly, but rather due to another update (KB2670838) that installs/installed with IE10 - although Microsoft should be ashamed that they knew about this problem since the pre-release and did not fix it prior to final release).
_________________________________
Honestly I don't care, I have Windows 7 and Windows 8 in a multi-boot configuration, and actually use Windows 7 99% of the time, I'm not fond of many aspects of Windows 8.

I am also investigating a possible IE10 bug regarding slow re-sizing of the remaining tabs when multiple tabs are present and one of these tabs is closed. I use an iPhone 5 and other Apple products. I'm not a Microsoft fan-boy by ANY stretch.

My reason for criticizing your 'article' is because I'm not sure if your goal is to provide bona-fide informative journalism or just write cynical articles full of opinions and/or propaganda. Your sight is very popular and many people may read an article on here and use it as their only source of information.

"Also, issues can arise depending on how the person is connected to the internet...through a VPN, proxy server, etc. ...some Windows system settings might be changed during installation."

Have anyone experienced any issues with proxy settings after installing IE10 on Windows 7?

After the installation, I can't change the proxy settings anymore. More precisely, I *can* change them and conform the changes.

Except the changes I made don't apply. Next time I open the global internet options | LAN settings dialog, the box I had checked is unchecked, or vice versa.

I have uninstalled IE10 for now, and things are back to normal. But I'd like to find out what's going on, just so I can upgrade again. Does anyone have a clue?

I use a 64-bit Windows 7 Professional environment, and access the Web from my customers' sites from proxies, and without proxy anywhere else.

Thanks in advance!

@Darth: Nice to see an obviously educated person's response. I was beginning to think I was alone in opinion after reading this article. You said it well and presented your statistics. Being a fan of facts and truth I'll throw in a "nice journalism".

@Softpedia: You just got blocked from my search results on Google for Yet Another Crappy Report (YACR). It reminds me of that TV show Extra, just a bunch of dressed up hot air. See SitePoint's write-up (http://www.sitepoint.com/internet-explorer-10-review-ie10/) if you want to see how journalism is done, with statistics. You didn't state one feature of IE10 and then state a bug about it. Just a * session as far as I can tell...ie haters. I use Chrome not IE. As a programmer of 20 plus years I can't stand IE it due to inconsistency in rendering what the W3C agreed was standard for html(5)...which might just be the real cause of these so called "bugs"; you still have to switch to browser compatibility mode to see most pages as Chrome, Firefox, and Opera users see it.

@Luiz: Did you read the link that said "Reply to this comment" before you clicked it? Do you think that someone ranting about the * poor quality of the article you're asking a question on, is really going to give you advice? I'm sure your a nice person and all that, but might I suggest you try thinking before you simply follow the other masses and believe the boat loads of crap people post on the Internet. If you really have a question about your Microsoft product go ask Microsoft. Fact if you have difficulty with any product you use, might I suggest you contact the manufacturer who knows more about their product then the so called journalist who wrote this article.

Get a life.

I have installed IE10 on one Dell XPS8000 and two HP laptops. Now the gadgets supplied with Windows 7, e.g. Weather and Currency, cannot connect to their data providers, except my desktop can on the Dell PC (the other desktop on it can't).

It might be interesting for your readers to here my experience with ie10 for window 7. I installed their trial version ( msn vidieos would not work my local paper would not load) I uninstalled . Ie 9 worked great again. Saw their update in windows update with all the bragging how wonderful , reinstalled samew problems. I called microsoft support funny how their own tech said IE10 IS IN COMPATABLE WITH WINDOWS 7. Perhaps someone should tell their marketing division .

IE 10 is a hot mess on Windows 7. On some websites...can't get buttons to work and the cursor disappears. Using a mouse to click on links is a hit or miss affair. This is by far the WORST version of IE to EVER be released. None of these issues were fixed with the final release at all. I will be staying with IE 9 or use Chrome which at least is compatible with both HTML 5 and CSS 3 formats while being backwards compatible to sites that have yet to update to the new web standards. I will also not be upgrading to Windows 8, which for a standard PC from everything I've read is a disaster. Very, very disappointed in Microsoft right now, sine just about all of the support sites for Windows 7 have been deleted by Microsoft, almost forcing everyone to move over to 8 which I am sooo not impressed with as an OS, at all!

I installed IE 10 on March 12, 2013 over Windows 7, (in an ASUS Laptop with core i5, 6 MB RAM and 640 MB HDD) as an online update suggested as Important by Microsoft. From the very beginning I experienced problems with Yahoo Mail. The display shows a notice saying:
You're almost there, but your web browser doesn’t support the newest version of Yahoo! Mail. Upgrade to a faster, more secure version of a supported browser. It's free and it only takes a few moments.
This is unbelievable! Then I go backward to the old Yahoo Mail version and it does not work properly. I only can use plain text an cannot upload attachments.
This is an unacceptable situation that requires immediate action for its solution.

Try viewing it in Compatibility mode or click Tools and F12 Developer tools in the menu and choose a different browser mode:

The developer tools opens a smaller window at the bottom of the page that has its own toolbar. Look for 'Browser Mode: IE10' - click on that and choose a different browser or choose IE Compatibility Mode. You can also configure the standards adhered to (by browser type) - This should show 'Document Mode: Standards' - click this and you can choose from IE 7, 8, 9 or 10 (just Standards) or something called Quirks (I have not tested so I don't know what this is).

Compatibility mode can also be triggered if you see an icon in the address bar (between the search magnifying glass icon and the reload arrow) - the icon looks like a torn piece of paper.

Compatibility mode has cured many misbehaving websites for me.

I installed IE10 on my SONY VAIO w intel i3 and it went flawlessly. My system had no errors at all. However, I ran spyboy2 and my AVG full version first to clean things up then installed.

just downloaded the update for internet explorer 10 a couple of days ago and everything was working fine until I noticed I couldn't open my comcast e-mail. And on my other computer at home the internet explorer completely ceased to function. Had to unistall internet explorer 10 on both computers and am back to internet explorer 9

I too installed IE 10 as included with last update. I experienced the same issue with yahoo mail but was able to resolve by using compatibility mode. Other than that, I am not able to click some buttons on Youtube, and my YT inbox goes into to a continuous page refresh and won't load. Other buttons on various websites are not clickable. This version does not seem any faster than the previous version in my opinion. Also in my opinion, IE 10 is Microsoft trash that they washed their hands of, and set out for us to rummage through.

Thank you for this post! IE10 was included with the lastest round of updates I installed and it was a complete disaster on my Asus laptop (running Windows 7 64-bit.) My system kept crashing and when I could finally get something running, I could only run Google Chrome -- both IE and Firefox wouldn't run. I tried a lot of things to fix it, but this is the only one that worked. THANK YOU!!

Explorer 10 crashes.
Win 7 Version 6.1 (Build 7601: Service pack 1) 64 bit
Explorer Version 10.0.9200.16521

I was experiencing many crashes in "Explorer 10"
I found that it ran ok without add-ons.
see: programs\accessories\system tools\explorer shortcut.

Investication led to extension prog "Fast download" unistalled it
All ok

IE 10 update auto installed last night (04/01/13) on HP Pavilion G6 with Win 7 Home Premium. IE 10 then fails to load when started and warning says MS will notify when a solution is available. Repeated reboots had no effect. All other internet dependent programs worked as usual.
Solution: roll-back to IE 9 and all works again.
I hid the IE 10 update in Windows Update to prevent it from reinstalling in the future.

My windows update installed ie 10 on to my windows 7 64 bit system. Not good could not access certain web sites including my work site.
I got rid of it asap. Back to ie9.

Something like a browser update shouldn't be an automatic update but rather an optional update. Many businesses use software that may not be supported under IE 10. MS being the huge corporation that they are should be aware that this may be the case with many. It is nearly impossible to determine the amount of money that this cost smaller businesses to resolve so that they could resume working. It's an issue if IE 9 won't download anything after an IE 10 rollback. Resetting to default doesn't work.

My system is Win 7 (64bit) SP1 with IE9 installed, both the 64 bit and 32 bit versions.

On May 1 2013 a windows 7 automatic update occurred. On booting up I found that the Win 7 update had removed IE9 64 bit and upgraded the 32 bit to IE10.
As a result I could not right click a link and open in a new tab. It creates an empty new tab.
So I tried to download the 64 bit version of IE10 and install it and was not permitted as a messge "already a later version of IE10" is installed.
Not knowing what to do next and as I was not even given the option of installing IE10 and removing IE9, I had to revert back to a system check point several days previous.
This reinstated the previous IE9 status (64 and 32 bit).
So from now on I will not have auto Win7 updated, instead the system can ask me.

Not happpy Microsoft!!

After an update to internet explorer 10, desktop on my Win7 64bit system rebuilds. I lost half of my shortcuts, fences didn't work anymore and wallpapers and themes were gone. System recovery helps, but I lost earlier recovery points.
Shame on you Microsoft for releasing a destructive update.

Installed on a msi laptop. It loads the sites but the screen is just blank. Uninstalled and reinstalled several times. Get the same problem when rollbacking to IE9. Rolling back to IE8 solves the problem. Is this related to the rumor that some laptop hybrid graphic cards are not supported?
