Internet Explorer parameters

Published by rakshit at 9:37 pm under Browsers Edit This

If you are habituated to launching programs from the command prompt, there are certain handy parameters that can be passed. Open RUN box and type ‘cmd’ without quotes to launch the command prompt window. At the command prompt use the following commands.

1) To launch IE without the home page, type “iexplore.exe -nohome”

2) To directly open a website after launching IE, type “iexplore.exe www.today.com”

3) To open IE without all the add-ons and toolbars installed, type “iexplore.exe -extoff”

Note that these will effect IE only for one time, and the next time IE is launched in the usual way, you will have the default settings.
