I need to run IE 10 in 32-bit mode on 64-bit Windows 7 Enterprise N.
When I run IE 10 from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer" I can see in task manager that I have only one process "iexplorer.exe" and no process "iexplorer.exe *32".
I have an application with an ActiveX that is supported only on 32-bit, and the application can't be loaded on 64-bit mode.
Is there a way I can force IE10 to run in 32-bit mode?
The referenced KB article only applies to Windows 8, whereas the OP is asking about Windows 7. I'm also running IE10 on 64-bit Windows 7, and don't see that registry key at the specified path. – Indrek – 2013-03-14T19:27:54.717
While the KB article does mention Windows 8, it applies to Windows 7, as well. I am running Win7 64bit, and I just did it. Try looking again - the TabProcGrowth is a DWORD entry in the "Main" folder - I realize that my path above may have made it seem like 'TabProcGrowth' is a folder, when in fact it is the entry. – Hal Nesbitt – 2013-03-14T19:39:05.357
1Nope, still can't see it, neither as a key (folder) nor a value (entry). IE10 on Windows 7 64-bit. Anyway, doesn't matter because I'm not having a problem with this. Hopefully the OP will check out your answer and verify whether or not it works for them. – Indrek – 2013-03-14T21:28:51.120
2Thanks! It helped. I could find this registry entry only on "Windows 7 Enterprise N" where I had the problem. On "Windows 7 Enterprise" the registry entry doesn't exists at all and every thing works correctly. – Keren Haas – 2013-03-17T08:56:02.410
