Hey Brad,

I had issues with nThusom v4.1.296 and IE11 on Windows 10 Vanilla.. IT would not run ad ngotinto a double screen and thenn I had to kill it via task manager..

I reinstalled the old version of nThusim v4.1.270 and then it seemed fine.. just thought I would give you a heads up

Well after Microsoft forced the Creastive update on me I retried 4.1.296 and I still get problems running IE11.. it seems to start off as a single screen then goes to double then does the continuous load and never loads a page..

I am wondering if we can get a hotfix for this issue..

Sounds like a profiles.ini setting that might be able to fix it. I'll be back in Kansas Saturday and can test some settings. I think it's merely the fact that it's using DirectX render pipeline and WDM pipeline and edge needs a few things set within profiles.ini to make it work right. An alternate option is to figure out the setting that turns off accelerated rendering for Edge. That'll force it to behave like a regular WDM render pipeline.

Substitute "Edge" for "IE11" and my suggestion still applies.

yes I tried your suggestion that and it did not work. only when I turn off nThusim does the browser work..

You misunderstood. I said to turn off hardware acceleration in IE11, not turn off WDM in Nthusim.

Looking at the profiles.ini, it should be an easy matter to add the IE11 profile for it. It's been about 6 months since I've edited that file though, so I'll need to experiment a bit. When we got desktop warping in I originally figured out the file syntax for profiles.ini, but it's been awhile since then. It's a mere matter of adding an entry for IE11 to it with the proper settings.
