Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 RC1


Recommended Posts

look the same as beta 3, abeit a few icon changes on dialog boxes

So they still haven't sorted out that messy looking interface then? At first I liked it, but now the novelty has wore off I think it looks ugly. It also steals valuable space for tabs too.

lovin it. no issues at all. installed smoothly, although i have never had an issue with ie but its nice to know i still dont.

arumalla are you running valid cause i know some people that alter the setup to bypass validation lose tab function.

I lost the Tabbed Browsing capability, as I updated it from Beta 3. it automatically uninstalled Beta 3 and restarted and installed RC1. now i don't see the option or the functionality for Tabbed browsing....

Did I miss something???

How did you install it? Did you extract the exe and run update.exe?

Turn it on under Options, Tabs, if its not enabled by default.

after installing ie7 beta3 at monday and now installing rc1 i see a almost no difference

so far ie7 it seems stable and better that previous beta 1 release, the only thing that really bother me its the placement of stop and reload buttons also the menu bar, i would really like that ie7 could be more customizable in that aspect, also people miss the old interface and i bet that more people wont upgrade because everythings changed so much that people wont know how to use it.

Microsoft should give users an option to switch to classic ie theme and also allow us to customize the placement of the buttons, if i want or not a search bar many things that firefox got and ie6 have more customization that ie7 lacks

Hardly messy if you ask me.

IE7 RC1

2 things I do wish for though, a way of getting rid of the search field ...I never use those in IE or in Firefox. Also, a bit more flexibility for customizing the UI would be nice, but it's not the end of the world. I only ever use IE7 for Windows Update anyways. (and in Vista you won't even need to)

    • Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution by Taras Buria Earlier this week, Microsoft announced the Surface Laptop Ultra, its brand-new high-end laptop powered by NVIDIA's brand-new RTX Spark processor. As usual, Microsoft gives each new device a unique wallpaper, and the Surface Laptop Ultra is no exception. While the device is not publicly available yet, somebody has already extracted its wallpaper, giving everyone a chance to get a piece of the upcoming laptop in its full-resolution glory. The Surface Laptop Ultra has a very dark, abstract wallpaper that resembles the stock wallpapers in Windows Server, albeit with much less color. Having this dark, grim wallpaper highlights the laptop's mini-LED display and its ability to cut off parts of the screen's backlight to achieve OLED-like black levels. However, if you also like light wallpapers, we made a white version by simply inverting its colors. You can download both wallpapers below (click the image, right-click it, and select "Save as"): The Surface Laptop Ultra is expected to launch later this year. Microsoft is not revealing full details yet, including the price. However, Microsoft confirmed up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and RTX 5070-level of GPU performance. The heart of the laptop has up to 20 CPU cores and 6,144 GPU cores. Additionally, Microsoft and NVIDIA boast high CPU efficiency for all-day battery life. As for the display, it is a 15-inch mini-LED display with a pixel density of 262 ppi and a maximum brightness of 2,000 nits. Of course, not everyone needs this amount of power, and certainly not everyone can afford it. For those who need a more affordable device, Microsoft is also preparing the next-generation Surface Pro powered by the Snapdragon X2 Elite processor. Weeks ahead of the announcement, details about this computer were leaked by a retailer. Do you like the Surface Laptop Ultra's stock wallpaper? Share your thoughts in the comments.
