I'm looking at developing an IE9 extension (using the following as a reference How to get started with developing Internet Explorer extensions?) and I'm wondering how I am going to deploy it.
Both Firefox and Chrome have a "store" where you can browse plugins and then a common packaging mechanism/standard, but I haven't been able to find the same for IE... anyone have any ideas?
Users, aside from the businesses that will continue to use Internet Explorer in conjunction with the aforementioned hybrid solutions, will have until June 2022 when the Internet Explorer desktop application will no longer be maintained or accessible for download.
Access the IE Tab details in the Chrome web store by opening this link in Chrome: Link to IE Tab or going to http://chrome.google.com/webstore/ and searching for “IE Tab”. 3. You will then need to verify that you really would like to add the extension. You do, so click “Add extension”.
To set up pages that will automatically open using the IE Tab in Chrome, right-click on the IE Tab icon and select "Options" to see all of the options. Scroll down to Auto URLs. Auto URLs enable you to specify which pages should be opened in IE Tab automatically so you don't have to click on the IE Tab icon.
You need to register the plugin as a COM addon, and add two entries to the registry. The post you linked to explains how to do both of these things.
You would deploy it as an installer package that does both of these things.
