Internet Explorer 8–Show Stop and Refresh Buttons Before Address Bar

  • Article

By default, Internet Explorer 8 has the Refresh and Stop buttons on the right side of the address bar.  I’m used to having them there.

However, if you use alternative browsers, you may prefer to have those buttons on the OTHER side of your address bar

It turns out that you can move them in IE.  Just right-click in an empty spot next to your tabs, and choose Customize –> Show Stop and Refresh Buttons before Address Bar.
