Validate URL Navigation

When enabled, the FEATURE_VALIDATE_NAVIGATE_URL feature control prevents Windows Internet Explorer from navigating to a badly formed URL.

By default, this feature is enabled for Internet Explorer and disabled for applications hosting the WebBrowser Control. To enable this feature by using the registry, add the name of your executable file to the following setting.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (or HKEY_CURRENT_USER)
   SOFTWARE
      Microsoft
         Internet Explorer
            Main
               FeatureControl
                  FEATURE_VALIDATE_NAVIGATE_URL
                     contoso.exe = (DWORD) 00000001

The feature is enabled when the value is set to (DWORD) 00000001 and disabled when the value is (DWORD) 00000000.

Visual Studio Legacy Help Support

Windows Internet Explorer 7 and later. Internet Explorer 7 strengthened the security of relative filename paths with regard to protocol handlers. While this improved security for Internet Explorer users, it created problems for earlier versions of Microsoft Visual Studio Help files that relied on the earlier behavior. The FEATURE_SHIM_MSHELP_COMBINE feature enables the earlier behavior with regard to files using the ms-help protocol and should only be enabled in cases where earlier versions of Visual Studio are deployed.

By default, this feature is disabled for Internet Explorer and enabled for applications hosting the WebBrowser Control. To disable this feature by using the registry, add the name of your executable file to the following setting.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (or HKEY_CURRENT_USER)
   SOFTWARE
      Microsoft
         Internet Explorer
            Main
               FeatureControl
                  FEATURE_SHIM_MSHELP_COMBINE
                     contoso.exe = (DWORD) 00000000

The feature is enabled when the value is set to (DWORD) 00000001 and disabled when the value is (DWORD) 00000000.

Web Browser Control Document Zoom

When enabled,the FEATURE_WEBOC_DOCUMENT_ZOOM feature allows HTML dialog boxes to inherit the zoom state of the parent window.

Note  This feature control cannot be disabled for Internet Explorer; this is by design.

 

By default, this feature is enabled for Internet Explorer and disabled for applications hosting the WebBrowser Control. To enable this feature by using the registry, add the name of your executable file to the following setting.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (or HKEY_CURRENT_USER)
   SOFTWARE
      Microsoft
         Internet Explorer
            Main
               FeatureControl
                  FEATURE_WEBOC_DOCUMENT_ZOOM
                     contoso.exe = (DWORD) 00000001

The feature is enabled when the value is set to (DWORD) 00000001 and disabled when the value is (DWORD) 00000000.

Web Browser Control Popup Management

The FEATURE_WEBOC_POPUPMANAGEMENT feature allows applications hosting the WebBrowser Control to receive the default Internet Explorer pop-up window management behavior.

By default, this feature is enabled for Internet Explorer and for applications hosting the WebBrowser Control. To disable this feature by using the registry, add the name of your executable file to the following setting.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (or HKEY_CURRENT_USER)
   SOFTWARE
      Microsoft
         Internet Explorer
            Main
               FeatureControl
                  FEATURE_WEBOC_POPUPMANAGEMENT
                     contoso.exe = (DWORD) 00000000

The feature is enabled when the value is set to (DWORD) 00000001 and disabled when the value is (DWORD) 00000000.

Web Browser Control Window Control

Applications hosting the WebBrowser Control should ensure that window resizing and movement events are handled appropriately for the needs of the application. By default, these events are ignored if the WebBrowser Control is not hosted in a proper container. When enabled, the FEATURE_WEBOC_MOVESIZECHILD feature allows these events to affect the parent window of the application hosting the WebBrowser Control. Because this can lead to unpredictable results, it is not considered desirable behavior.

By default, this feature is disabled for Internet Explorer and for applications hosting the WebBrowser Control. To enable this feature by using the registry, add the name of your executable file to the following setting.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (or HKEY_CURRENT_USER)
   SOFTWARE
      Microsoft
         Internet Explorer
            Main
               FeatureControl
                  FEATURE_WEBOC_MOVESIZECHILD
                     contoso.exe = (DWORD) 00000001

The feature is enabled when the value is set to (DWORD) 00000001 and disabled when the value is (DWORD) 00000000.

Web Control Visuals

The FEATURE_ENABLE_WEB_CONTROL_VISUALS feature affects the appearance of controls in theme-aware webpages and apps. When enabled, this feature causes Windows 7 to render theme-aware controls in a manner similar to (though not necessarily the same as) the way related controls are rendered in later versions of Windows. When this feature is disabled, theme-aware webpages render controls so they look like the Windows 7 Aero theme. Controls in webpages that are not theme-aware render using a look similar to Windows 95.

Note  Certain theme-aware controls also behave differently when this feature is enabled, though such changes are generally cosmetic.

 

To mark a webpage as theme-aware:

  1. Place a meta element in the head section.
  2. Set the httpEquiv attribute to "msThemeCompatible".
  3. Set the content attribute to "yes".

To enable this feature, add the name of your executable file to the following registry setting.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (or HKEY_CURRENT_USER)
   SOFTWARE
      Microsoft
         Internet Explorer
            Main

                     contoso.exe = (DWORD) 00000001

The feature is enabled when the value is set to (DWORD) 00000001 and disabled when the value is (DWORD) 00000000.

WebOC Addon Management

The FEATURE_ADDON_MANAGEMENT feature enables applications hosting the WebBrowser Control to respect add-on management selections made using the Add-on Manager feature of Internet Explorer. Add-ons disabled by the user or by administrative group policy will also be disabled in applications that enable this feature.

To enable this feature by using the registry, add the name of your executable file to the following setting.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (or HKEY_CURRENT_USER)
   SOFTWARE
      Microsoft
         Internet Explorer
