Disable addressbar in Assigned Internet Explorer

In my assigned user account I want to run Internet Explorer to display the configured start page. This works. However, the user is still able to see the address bar and can enter a new address. Does Modern IE support hiding the address bar like Desktop
IE can do (via Registry settings)?

This scenario has come up before and answers have varied between using third party modern browser apps and using Internet Explorer Kiosk Mode on the desktop. See:

  • Disable Quicktime plugin for Internet Explorer

    There has been discussion on a number of forums regarding the Quicktime plugin for Windows Internet Explorer and how it will hijack file associations, preventing them from being opened up with your default application. This only occurs when clicking on a link on a website. This even occurs when the file assocations in Windows are set to open a particular media file with your desired player. Disabling the Quicking plugin in the Internet Explorer settings may only makes things worse because instead of the file playing with the Quicktime plugin, Internet Explorer displays a red "X", and doesn't play the media. Uninstalling Quicktime is a solution, but if you, like me, own a Apple device and use iTunes, Quicktime must be installed. There are a number of postings on the web with potential solutions, but none of them worked for me.
    After troubleshooting for some time, I have finally figured out how to disable the plugin once and for all. I have narrowed it down to the registry entry that apparently loads the plugin into Internet Explorer. By simply deleting this entry, the Quicktime plugin will no longer load with IE and media will be launched with your favorite player. You can easily revert back to the Quicktime plugin by restoring the registry entry from a backup. Below, I have provided the reg.exe command line commands to backup and delete the registry entry.
    1) Close out of Internet Explorer.
    2)Backup with this command:
    reg export "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{4063BE15-3B08-470D-A0D5-B37161CFFD69} " C:\qt_plugin1.reg
    NOTE: This registry path is for Windows x64 (64-bit). I am not certain of the path for Windows x86 (32-bit), but I assume you may just need to remove Wow6432Node from the path. If it is not there, open regedit.exe and search for 4063BE15-3B08-470D-A0D5-B37161CFFD69.
    3) Delete with this command:
    reg delete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{4063BE15-3B08-470D-A0D5-B37161CFFD69} " /f
    4) Open Internet Explorer and test. When you click on a music or video link, your default media player should now launch.
    I have tested this myself several times, including a reinstallation of Quicktime, and it worked. If it doesn't work for some reason, you can try performing the same steps with the following registry entries. Do one at a time and test so that you don't delete anything unnecessary.
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{CB927D12-4FF7-4A9E-A169-56E4B8A75598}
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B}
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Compo nents\3F9E7EA97A1AEE54490637032025DEF9
    If you wish to restore the Quicktime plugin, simply double-click the registry file that you backed up in step 2. Click yes when it asks you to confirm. Now when you open Internet Explorer and click on a link, the Quicktime plugin will load and play the media.

    I mentioned I have the Acrobat Pro 9 version.
    Also, Im using IE 8.

    Hi,
    read this to be aware there are security reasons why this is disabled in most browsers: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/arvindsh/archive/2011/02/09/window-open-without-address-bar.aspx
    Otherwise is the code something like this:
      newwindow=window.open(url,'name','height=500,width=400,left=100, top=100,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,*location=no*,toolbar=yes,status=yes');Herald ten Dam

  • Problem with Youtube on Windows 8.1 enterprise / Internet Explorer 11

    When the youtube videos finishes, the account logs off.
    I've tested on other video hostings, there is not any problem (vimeo.com, rutube.ru etc.)
    The problem seemson both, internet explorer desktop and app versions.
    Hardware: HP Laptop 2510p
    Software: Windows 8.1 Enterprise Clean Install.(The VGA driver is installed automatically by Windows.)
    Have anyone the same problem? Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi, 
    It's not a bug, the cause of this issue is that  your current video card or video driver does not support GPU hardware acceleration well, and you may have to install the latest video driver supporting hardware acceleration.
    For detailed information about this setting, you can refer to this article:

  • Flash Player 10.3 and Internet Explorer 9 update and workarounds

    Hello Flash Player community,
    We are tracking the issues being reported on Flash Player 10.3.181.14 and Internet Explorer 9 and actively investigating them.  Users are reporting that Flash content is being displayed in the upper left corner of the screen.  We want to give those who are encountering these issues an update.
    First, we apologize to everyone affected.  We know you count on Flash Player as an integral component of the web and we strive for high quality and performance in each release.  We are actively looking into the root cause of this issue.  Thanks to many of you submitting information via email and our online bug database, we now have some solid leads we are pursuing.
    Flash Player 10 and later can use your system’s graphics hardware to accelerate video decoding, and can also accelerate video presentation on some sites. Starting with Flash Player 10.2, Flash Player will also take advantage of hardware accelerated graphics in Internet Explorer 9, utilizing hardware rendering surfaces to improve graphics performance.
    With Flash Player 10.3.181.14, reports indicate that systems with Intel HD Graphics adapters running Internet Explorer 9 are the only systems impacted by this particular bug.  If you are encountering this issue and have a different configuration we'd love to hear from you.  Please review the instructions on this page for details on generating the information we'll need for further investigation.
    Solution #1
    Adobe has officially released Flash Player 10.3.181.16 for Internet Explorer to address the graphical issues introduced in 10.3.181.14.  You can get this release by visiting our official download page, directly downloading and running the installer file, or using the Flash Player auto update mechanism.
    After installing, we recommend you re-enable hardware acceleration if you had it previously disabled.  We also recommend you clear your browser cache and restart your system.
    If you continue to encounter issues, please create a new thread and we'll do our best to investigate further.
    Solution #2
    On some systems, you may be able to resolve this issue by updating the Intel HD Graphics drivers. It has been reported that driver versions 8.15.10.2361 and above do not exhibit this bug. Unfortunately, some systems might require updates directly from your system manufacturer. We’re working with system manufacturers to make sure they include the latest drivers in future releases.
    Solution #3
    You can disable hardware acceleration in Internet Explorer 9 using the instructions on this page. Please note that you should re-enable hardware acceleration once this problem has been resolved to enjoy the full benefits of hardware acceleration.
    Thank you,
    The Flash Player team
    Update 5/20/11 - We've temporarily disabled the automatic update notification for Flash Player 10.3 and Internet Explorer.  We're making progress on a fix and hope to have a new version available next week.
    Update 5/24/11 - Added link to the 10.3.181.15 test update
    Update 5/27/11 - Added instructions for post install of 10.3.181.15
    Update 5/31/11 - Updated thread with the official 10.3.181.16 announcement

    FOR THOSE RUNNING IE9 ON WINDOWS 7 AND HAVE INSTALLED THE AUTOMATIC UPDATE FOR ADOBE FLASH PLAYER 10.3 - TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEPS:
    Open IE9 Browser window > Click on "Tools" > Click on "Internet Options" > Selct the "Advanced" Tab > Turn on/Click the "Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering" > Click "Apply" > Click "OK" > Shut down and then restart your IE9 browser.
    THIS WILL BE A TEMPORARY FIX FOR ANY ISSUES YOU MAY HAVE WITH THE CONSTANT FLOOD OF FLASHING ADS AND THE LIKE UNTIL A PATCH IS MADE AVAILABLE FOR THIS UPDATE.
    OTHER QUICK FIXES WOULD INCLUDE:
    1) UN-INSTALLING 10.3 AND RE-DOWNLOADING AND INSTALLING 10.2 FOR THE TIME BEING. **BE SURE TO AVOID RE-INSTALLING THE AUTOMATIC UPDATE OF 10.3 AGAIN**
    2) DOWNLOADING AND INSTALLING "MOZILLA FIREFOX" AND USING IT AS YOUR WEB BROWSER!!

    Using Windows 8.1 with Internet Explorer 11, EMET 5.2 causes Internet Explorer to crash just by navigating to a website.  I'm using 'Recommended Security' settings in EMET, with the default 'Popular Software' protection profile.
    1) Open Internet Explorer

    In my case, as soon as I open IE, it crashes almost immediately. Deeply disappointed at MS now. First, there had happened a few times last year that Windows Update bricked the entire OS, for at least two times. Now it's this shxt. It's truly a disgrace.
    With EVERY Windows update, the size of the OS increases by at least 2 GB each month. For my OS drive (120GB SSD) it's quite significant. I DON'T UNDERSTAND why the fxxk MS would push out such huge Windows Update every single month. To me, it's another evidence
    how incompetent programmers at MS become. They have to heavily patch the holes in the OS every 30 DAYS, otherwise the OS will be taken advantage of by hackers. What a pathetic situation for MS. 
    I already decide to switch to Ubuntu and WPS Office Suite. I am typing this post on my Ubuntu 14.04.2 laptop. Bye-bye MS.

  • Mapquest sign in box does not appear in Firefox but does in Internet Explorer. Why? Have disabled add ons but no luck.

    The sign in box does not show up on Mapquest when I use Firefox. If I use Internet Explorer, the sign in box appears. I disabled the Firefox add-ons thinking there might be a conflict but no luck. Mapquest support is at a dead end, too, especially with it working in IE but not in Firefox. Suggestions?

    Can you post a link to that login page or is this a pop-up window?

  • How to solve Adobe Reader 8 and Internet Explorer (IE) setting set to Download Disable

    Anyone can help me with this issue. Due to our company policy, Download is disable in the Internet Explorer (IE). With Adobe Reader 4/5/6, we are able to open and view the pdf on the IE. But with Adobe Reader 7/8, it require IE download enable before open the pdf file.

    Yes, I agree that PDF always downloaded to IE Temp folder. But with IE download disabled and using either Acrobat Reader 6, we can open online PDF files. With with the same setting as above, but now using Adobe Reader 7 or 8, we would get the message "The current security setting does not allow for the files to be downloaded".
    Anybody know of any workaround solution or something changed with Adobe Reader 7 or higher?
    Thanks.

  • When I use Firefox for Yahoo mail the tabs such as sign out, search email, help seem to be disabled. How do I make them work? Works in Internet Explorer

    There are a number of tabs at top of my inbox such as sign out, search email, help, etc. They do not work. For example cannot insert a name for search email- will not give me the curser to do this. When I use internet explorer these tabs do work so not a problem with Yahoo mail- must be problem with Firefox. Recently updated Firefox.

    SafeBrowser posted Recently, the Yahoo Toolbar and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause that problem. They seem to overlap invisibly over the top of the web page display. If you have either or both, uninstall or disable them/it, or see if an update is available that solves the problem.
    See --> http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
    I disabled the Babylon extension and Yahoo Mail works now.
    Thank you SafeBrowser
