So I have an C# Form application that utilizes the web browser component. Apparently Response.Write(Request.Browser.Version.ToString()); returns "7.0" when I visit my test page from the web browser component.
How can I make this web browser component use IE8?
You should change the registry for your system while you are in debugging too.
public void ChangeRegistery()
{
string key = @"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MAIN\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION";
var value = 0x22B8;
Microsoft.Win32.Registry.SetValue(key, System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName, value,Microsoft.Win32.RegistryValueKind.DWord);
#if DEBUG
Microsoft.Win32.Registry.SetValue(key, System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName.Replace(".exe", ".vshost.exe"), value, Microsoft.Win32.RegistryValueKind.DWord);
#endif
}
