IE10 on Windows 7 available in November
As we approach general availability of Windows 8, we want to provide an update on IE10 for Windows 7. We will release a preview of IE10 on Windows 7 in mid-November, with final availability to follow as we collect developer and customer feedback.
IE10 on Windows 7 has the same standards based platform for developers to target as IE10 on Windows 8. We built an entirely new browser with Windows 8, with more performance and developer capabilities. IE10 brings improved real-world site performance and additional standards support to Windows 7 that Web developers have been asking for. We look forward to getting your feedback on IE10 on Windows 7, and will provide another update when the preview is available.

It's been over a year since the last Preview for Windows 7. It's unfathomable that it's taken so long. It's unfortunate there are still hundreds, if not thousands, of pieces of feedback (including legitimate issues) on Connect that haven't even been addressed. It really goes to show how mixed up the IE development team's priorities are if IE10 RTM's GA won't be next week.. or even next month.Anonymous

It is pretty interesting how overwhelmingly negative the community is toward IE still. Not necessarily because it isn't warranted (though I still think it is), but interesting because Microsoft has had so much time to correct these problems and not anger the community. Even if the project is behind, by communicating throughout the process via channels like @IE on Twitter, you can mitigate the disappointment, frustration, and anger.Anonymous

Rob Mauceri, Can you answer me that most of site force me to install Chrome frame or move to Firefox instead of using non-standard browser. Mostly site I use daily like asana and some other hard to run on IE10 and I still got trouble with many site In Ie10 when I tried to test them. Is their any sollution for this. Do you want me to contact every-men's site's webmaster and tell them bugs. anyway, any update on this problem. I tried to post this comment in my past but not sure if I got the answer for this exact problem.Anonymous

I'm guessing that the porting from windows 8 was a lot harder than they predicted, probably because IE10 uses some features that are exclusive to windows 8 and those features would have to be recreated in the windows 7 port.Anonymous
October 17, 2012
Hey Microsoft, Please stop joking. You made everything buggy, I have tried Bugmatrix but it's crash most of time. I tried Ie10 but most of time it's not work even Chrome frame. I tried Expression studio which even don't have zen-coding and similiar feature that I got freely in Komodo Edit which cost me 0$. so I count 3 maybe someone else few others. When other company can stop the development (adobe) then Why Microsoft not do that.I even not sure if you have any answer for Expression studio web's update.Anonymous

I've never once had a site try to force me to use chrome frame and the only compatability problems I ever have are with sites treating IE9 like its IE6. Microsoft can't do anything about the sites you visit having horrible code, tell the web developers to stop being lazy.Anonymous

When you navigate inside iframe in IE10, there is no loading indication. When a user click to navigate or submit a form inside the iframe, it has no way to know that the browser is working so it clicks several time which gives a bad user experience and load on the server. In all other browsers you get the normal loading indication like a spinning throbber and loading icon in the cursor. ThanksAnonymous

October 17, 2012
Thats not true, in fact if you look at the statistics on most websites you would see that IE6/7 are essentially dead, web developers can completely ignore IE6/7 support unless a client specifically asks for it. Google doesn't even officially support IE7 anymore. And if your clients are too lazy to update IE7, then what makes you think they would update to an entirely different browser? They are staying with an old browser because they don't like change, not because its hard to update to IE8/9.Anonymous

I'm still using the IE10 version that came on the Win8 Release Preview, and I'm wondering if anyone else is having these issues, or if these issues have been fixed in the GA build of Win8: On the twitter.com website, IE10 (desktop) release preview has huge usability problems. Hovering over a tweet does not show the "reply/retweet/etc" links. You have to click on teh link to expand it, and then once you click on a link (like reply or retweet) and finish the task, the page will suddenly scroll back up to the top. Additionally, when new tweets appear (at the top, it says "x new tweets/interactions") and you click on that, a gap opens up between the header and the tweets. This gap gets bigger with each update. I've also had issues on Facebook, where clicking on a picture causes the photo viewer to appear BEHIND the main newsfeed, so you can't see the picture. I'm finding using IE10 very, very difficult as a user on Win8 release preview. I sure hope these issues are fixed in the final release bits, or are scheduled to be fixed very soon after release. I'm actually feeling forced to use Chrome on Win8 because IE10's usability is so low.Anonymous

You guys dropped the ball on IE10, sorry but its clear as day that developers love chrome for the pace of its development, if you want developers to care you need to continue the optimism developers had after IE9.. IE10 needs to be a hiccup, if the next IE isn't hitting customers within 4 months then its not good enough and developers won't care to target IE.Anonymous

This is really a joke. The Windows 8 developer dashboard requires IE10, but it is not available on Windows 7. My main developer PC is Windows 7 and will stay on Windows 7, but I can't use MS own dashboard website, because the browser it requires isn't available on Win 7.Anonymous

Thats for the (long awaited) announcement. Although it appears to come very late, I'm still looking forward to IE10 on Win7. If you could provide more frequent updates on current work being done on IE, and make this blog less of a futile confrontation between Microsoft marketing and angry commenters, and more of a useful, informative and relaxed place, it would be a welcome move. You could start by answering (reasonably civil) comments more often and pressing your management to drop this excessive silence on anything that could cast you in a bad light (slipping schedules, controversial decisions, rival browsers performing better...). Shutting down honest communication in favor of marketing is doing you much more harm than good.Anonymous

Please fix the BlurType (TM) Font rendering. How to see it: Install W7. Install IE 10. Set "Best Performance" Done. See the font rendering in IE 9 and up compare to other browser. I still use IE 8 because of this :( I really like to use IE 9 if the font not blur. I don't like antialiasing font. If other browser can render the font using GPU and sharp without antialiasing than IE can be better :) I hope the font rendering in IE 10 will be sharp event in "Best Performance" :)Anonymous
October 17, 2012
In what ridiculous development environment is IE sitting right now? The IE v9+ rendering engine lives in an ever-expanding set of platforms: Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Phone 7.x, Windows Phone 8 and XBox. Yet there's still no unified development process? Madness.Anonymous

October 17, 2012
@All, Before you dive into comments and bashing everything posted on IE blog. The so call "preview" would provide equal standards support as IE10 RTM on Windows 8. IE team had to build an entirely new browser for Win8 as the core of OS has changed. For Windows 7, most probably, they will implement spellcheck service, improved credentials manager (with Web Credentials like Windows 8) and other OS dependent stuff. The next to this preview would be the final version (hopefully by December). Also, the development life cycle is changed with IE10. For those who haven't tried IE10 on Win8, there is an auto update for IE versions in About IE dialog. Meanings, IE10 will be upgraded to IE11 and future version without bothering you. Like FF and Chrome does. @Bashers, Are you for real? First you guys were yelling about getInnerHtml support for dropdown, IE10 provided it. Then you asked about advanced CSS3 filters, IE10 provided it too. Then SVG filters, IE10 provided it. Then tons of HTML5 stuff.. Then you asked for IE10 on Windows 7.. now that they have announced the preview and you are still whining! If nothing can satisfy you, then just GTFOH..Anonymous
October 17, 2012
Seriously? IE7 had F12 developer tools when Chrome wasn't even invented. And you are way to obsolete if you think about comparing MSFT (who employee 100,000 professionals from world top universities and whose primary business is to develop and sell products like Windows, Xbox, SharePoint, Surface etc. to make money) and Google (who license opensource projects, tag their Goofy logo on it, install some creepy tracking modules and sell YOU out to make money). Hope you realize now how stupid you were if you still trusted Google with Gmail, Youtube, your gf's Android (everything is FREE) ... but amazingly google is making money on everything by selling your footprints to the highest bidders. Like I was watching a video on youtube and I was seeing the ads about CCIE why? because I recieved the registration email from Cisco on GMAIL! Now they will use the emails in my draft too! Did I signed for that? No way.. So next time you compare epic conspirators with MSFT, just think about it twice..Anonymous
October 17, 2012
that's why I prefer to use Firefox over IE. The site I use daily have totally based on HTML5 so it's better to go with firefox rather then Ie10+GC frame. This is the big trouble for Microsoft with those developer who not want to spent time to make it compatible with IE.Anonymous

Hi Rob. Preview!? Who still installs unfinished software on their machines? Rather, you should release a VM with your preview pre-configured. Then I'll give it a try. "with final availability to follow as we collect developer and customer feedback." Are you serious? Nearly every blog post this year has had legions of people asking, pleading, and even begging you for IE10 Win7 details. That was our feedback. But you ignored it all. Tell me why this time is any different. Tell me that I will not be wasting my time yet again. No really, please explain it to us.Anonymous

Next time you realize that there is no chance in he** that you are going to meet your commitments (a win7 beta version of IE10 to provide feedback and report bugs before win8 goes RTM) can you do us a favor?... Yeah can you like come on the IE Blog and tell us that there will be a delay?... It would be a lot better than stonewalling silence and refusing to respond to our questions comments and concerns (esp. The ones raised about security holes!) If we did this to our customers we would lose them and future sales... Don't think just because you're providing a platform/free product that your customers don't have feelings. We certainly do have feelings and the emotion we are experiencing right now is described as "a kick in the teeth!" You've lost a lot of respect in both the developer and user community... And you're going to have to work twice as hard now to earn in back if its not too late already.

Hi, sorry for daring to submit offtopic comment. But I don't know the appropriate place to request for review. I asked a question about SVG transparency behavior (tavmjong.free.fr/.../svg_test.svg) on Firefox vs Internet Explorer on Stackoverflow community website. It turned out to be a bug in IE10: stackoverflow.com/.../1712065. I am new to SVG. Therefore I cannot elaborate the technical details. But what I understand is that the SVG markers are inheriting the fill-opacity from one of the sibling nodes rather parent. Can anyone with SVG knowledge please confirm and submit a bug-report for it Thank you so much.Anonymous

Why don't you guys stop? Just. Stop. Please stop releasing IE. Stop updating it. Stop doing releases on a 2 year schedule that put you perpetually over a year behind any other browser. Stop talking about IE, stop spending money on it, cut your losses and get out. The damage Microsoft has done after the release & abandonment of IE6 is incalculable. Microsoft has held the web development community behind for nearly a decade. Nobody wants this project. Nobody likes this project. Bundle an auto-downloader with Windows that downloads Chrome, Firefox, or Opera, sanitize your hands and leave. Seriously. Stop. Microsoft spends money on this project and everybody loses. IE no longer innovates; that stopped after IE6. Now this project is nothing but a drag on everyone else. Release a statement saying that you've given up and that you encourage everyone to use another browser. The entire world will thank you - and you won't have to pay engineers to develop IE anymore.

It would be really cool to see what we can install on this device instead of the El Camino OS I'm sure we can actually do something cool with the hardware with some tweaking. Since it will likely be rooted very early on it will likely turn off IT departments from deploying (no one wants an insecure device) if of course they aren't scared off due to the plugin security issues that cause double logins across multiple apps in multiple contexts.Anonymous

Do you guys know what you want? Anyway, there is, together with Opera and Safari only 1 other browser left with a normal release cyclus, and that's IE. Great job, Microsft. :) Can't waith for IE11.Anonymous

Why don't you support Windows Vista??????????? There are only very small technical differences between WinVista and Win7. That's just a very very bad marketing to buy Windows 7 or 8. I can understand why there's no WinXP support, because there are big technical differences between xp and vista/7/8 and xp is a 11 years old OS. But why not support vista????? I'm almost sure that IE11 will not support Windows 7 only windows 8 (and Windows 9 if it will be available that time). At least IE10 will support Windows 7.Anonymous

@tbalint444444 - 'Cause Internet Explorer is part of Windows. And Windows Vista doesn't have mainstream support, so no new features and no new Internet Explorer. If IE11 launch before 2015, it will also be available on Windows 7.Anonymous

...I guess we will not have to wait too long, as Microsoft has "donated" some patents (see following list) for this codec.

Someone @microsoft does not want microsoft IE should compete Chrome, so all the website which was working on IE9.0, all of them are erroring as per the IE 10 on 2012 server. We have IE 10, specially due to security stuff.Anonymous

Another IE version in preview means nothing more than a new playground for hackers, malware writers and viruses. And those who cannot wait till the RTM is out can get ready to be infected...Anonymous
