IE11 bumped to version 11.0.1 after Cumulative 'Patch Tuesday' Update

Patch Tuesday not only brought security updates to Windows yesterday; it also bumped Internet Explorer up to version 11.0.1, with a bunch of bug fixes for the browser on Windows 8 and 8.1.

 

Before and after the update.

Internet Explorer 11 has seen its first major post-RTM update, bumping it up from version 11.0 to 11.0.1 with the installation of 'MS13-088: Cumulative security update for Internet Explorer'.

The update, which was delivered along with the Patch Tuesday offerings, included 17 bug fixes as well as separate general security updates, such as a patch for Adobe Flash Player.

Just a few of the changes include an "Update that disables Enhanced Protected Mode by default in Internet Explorer 11" which we covered yesterday, and "Internet Explorer loses HTTP connections when you close a webpage before you receive an XHR response" which is clearly a bug fix and not a security update. The full list can be seen here which also includes bug fixes for IE10 as well. 

The update applies to the Windows 8.1 Preview - which can still be used - and of course the shipped versions of Windows 8, 8.1, and Windows Server variants where IE11 can be installed.
