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.

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.
I was wondering if anyone had any luck automating through UAC pop-ups during installer automation?
I have an existing Automated installer code but it fails at the UAC area due to Sikuli not using keyboard/mouse during this step...
Anyone had any luck here? or no a way to do this in Jython?
Thanks
The reason Sikuli doesn't work in this scenarios is because the UAC dialog is displayed in a "Secure desktop" which you can read more about here. Secure desktop prevents all interaction so even you attempt to take a screenshot of the UAC dialog itself, it will fail.
That being said, there is a workaround. You can disable switching to secure desktop by following these steps:
Run gpedit.msc
Under Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\SecurityOptions,
change "User Account Control: Switch to the secure desktop when prompting for elevation" to disabled.
How to disable or delete browser cache in Windows 10 on the Edge browser?
There are no options on preferences and developer tools (F12)
Open Developer Tools then cache is disabled automatically. And click "Network" tab then click "Always refresh from server" button.
(It only works if the Developer Tools is open)
Just open Network and click on the selected icon (in the image). It will not cache till the dev tools are open.
In all edge shortcut properties (including system) add:
--disk-cache-dir=nul
and clear manually folders:
c:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Cache\
c:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Code Cache\
Now disk cache disable. usefull on ssd disks and working with: Chromium / Google Chrome / Opera / Edge
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.
i am using ie9 but sometimes i have to use ie7 or ie8 and i don't want to uninstal it can i turn ie9 to ie7 if it is needed?
I don't currently have IE9 so I can't verify, but I have installed it temporarily in the past and believe this functionality exists.
In, IE, press F12 to bring up the Developer Tools. Towards the right side of the toolbar in this popup window, there should be a "Browser Mode" or something, which you can change between different versions of IE.
If you want to test web pages try IETester http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage you have from version 5 to 8 and if you want it for normal use try to install IE in seprate folders.
