Does anyone know the keyboard shortcut for refreshing current webpage in IE11 when focus is set on F12 developer tools? F5 only works when focus is set on the browser itself, so the way I am doing it now is clicking the IE and hitting F5. Combination of keyboard shortcuts would do as well.
I have F12 developer tools pinned.
Please use
Ctrl + R
It works for IE11.

Scenario :
There is a button/link on a page opened in chrome browser and after clicking on a button/link it will navigate to the other link and opens in systems default browser i.e. Internet Explorer.
How to change the focus from chrome browser to internet explorer in selenium?
This is not possible.
You are starting your Chrome browser using the Chromedriver. You cannot handle Internet Explorer with your Chromedriver. You would need to use the IEDriver.
But as you did not start Internet Explorer using Selenium you would need to re-use an existing session. This is officially not supported see.
Nevertheless Tarun Lalwani was able to achieve this. See here and here.
I would suggest to save the link of the button/link before clicking on it and then start a new session using Internet Explorer and navigate to the saved link.
We have a set of users who cannot view source or use developer tools in IE11 on Windows 10. right clicking to view source closes the browser with no errors being displayed or found in event viewer. If you hit F12 it will open briefly and then will again close the browser without errors
Any way of disabling the ability to press f12 and have the dev window pop up? Running IE10 and IE11.
Thank you
This link here is a program that will allow you to disable the developer tools.
I have created an application in selenium wherein it opens IE browser and enters user id and password by usind selenium's IE driver. However I want to prevent user from inspecting the auto data filled by selenium in the form. User can easily inspect the data using developer tools. So I want to know the way to disable developer tools options in selenium opened webpages.
Your help is highly appreciable.
Thanks.
Instantiate an instance of OpenQA.Selenium.Interactions.Actions then perform keystrokes for the F12 control. This should toggle on/off the developer tools in Chrome, IE, and Firefox.
I would also include a check to see if one of the controls from the devtools is there before toggling this, just to be sure that you don't turn them on instead of off.
c#:
OpenQA.Selenium.Interactions.Actions actions = new OpenQA.Selenium.Interactions.Actions([Instance of IWebDriver goes here]);
actions.SendKeys(OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.F12).Perform();
in previous versions of IE the F12 dev tools had several option for cache and cookie management, but in the new IE 11 version (on the network tab) the option to clear / delete session cookies seems to be missing, does anyone know where to find it, (or how to accomplish this)
ps- no, "close IE and restart" is not a solution
There's a Clear Cookies for Domain button at the top center of the Network tab in the remodeled F12 tools.
To clear ALL session cookies, in the address bar, type:
javascript:document.execCommand("ClearAuthenticationCache")
and hit enter. Note that you must type this command yourself; if you copy/paste it, IE will delete the javascript: at the front of the string for security reasons.
Press F12 to open Developer Tools, go to Console tab, enter this Javascript command
document.execCommand("ClearAuthenticationCache")
I tried and saw that typing in address bar won't work.
