IE Tab
Display web pages using IE within Chrome. Use Java, Silverlight, ActiveX, Sharepoint, and more.
What is IE Tab?
IE Tab is a Chrome extension that replicates the Internet Explorer environment, facilitating access to features like Java, Silverlight, ActiveX and Sharepoint directly in Chrome. Through different versions of IE (IE7 - IE11), fully supported in Windows 11 and beyond, IE Tab maintains a secure hold on the old IE rendering engine for secure use. Its deployment options and support for URL and enterprise-specific grouping policies also enhance its utility.
