WebBrowser control appear to use an old version of IE

Question

Saturday, March 4, 2017 6:46 PM

Hi

I'm Using Windows 7 64bit and for sure i have IE7, the engine was basically not compatible with the web modern designs.
So in that case, I Updated to the Last version of IE (11),
the browser seems loading the website correctly and nothing wrong with it.

But at my windows application, the WebBrowser control seems still loading the old design of IE7,
As far as I know, WebBrowser Version Depends on the User IE Version, so whats the problem ?

Searched google for sure, many useless solutions and no certain answer
Any suggestions please ?

Thanks in Advance.

 The .Net webbrowser control emulates IE7 by default even if you have a newer version of IE installed.  You can make it emulate a newer version as shown in the link below.
