Internet Explorer Browser Extensions

Note  Developers are encouraged to use Microsoft Edge, the new default browser built for Windows 10. For more information on Microsoft Edge Extensions, check out the Microsoft Edge Extensions documentation on the Microsoft Edge Dev Center.

 

Browser extensions, introduced in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5, allow developers to add functionality to the browser and enhance the user interface in a way that is not directly related to the viewable content of Web pages. This class of extensibility includes add-on functionality that users might install to enhance their browsing experience.

About Browser Extensions

Browser extensions allow developers to provide easy access to their browser enhancements by adding elements (like an Explorer Bar) to the default user interface. Introduced in Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0, this feature enables developers to create Explorer Bars and add entries into the standard context menus. Beginning with Internet Explorer 5, this feature allows developers to add entries into the Tools menu and buttons to the toolbar.

Writing Stable Browser Extensions

The stability of Internet Explorer is adversely affected by poorly implemented extensions such as BHOs, toolbars, or ActiveX controls. This article summarizes important guidelines developers should follow when creating COM extensions to customize the browser and provides tips and best practices for well-behaved browser extensions that do not cause Internet Explorer to crash or become unresponsive ("hang").
