C＃WinForm Web浏览器不支持的浏览器

Question

This is my last resort as I've looked all over this site for a fix, but everything I've tried doesn't work.

Issue: I want to navigate to www.espn.com via a webbrowser tool in my winform app, but I am only able to get a degraded version of espn since it tells me I'm using an unsupported browser.

What I've tried: I've tried multiple solutions where you change/add a registry key to the FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION but it doesn't seem to change anything.

This link is the code I've tried to fix this issue but no such luck.

Use latest version of Internet Explorer in the webbrowser control

Anyone have any ideas???

This is my current result:

Answer 1

it looks like you are running your windows forms project in debug mode from visual studio? Fist your need to add the BROWSER_EMULATION keys to your registry...a name value pair, where the name is the name of the exe that your project compiles to, and a value (as described here - Use latest version of Internet Explorer in the webbrowser control ) for the version of IE you wish to use (use 11). here is a snippet from my registry

[Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION]
"HelpPane.exe"=dword:00002710
"prevhost.exe"=dword:00001f40
"Fiddler.exe"=dword:0000270f
"XMLViewerHPSF.exe"=dword:00002af8
"sllauncher.exe"=dword:00001f40

showing the name value pairs in the registry...

Second , you then compile your webforms project to an exe with the name you used in the registry. eg myWBC.exe

Unfortunately, you cannot use the BROWSER_EMULATION key(s) when debugging from VS. You can only test your compiled project.
