Changing Your Default Browser in Windows 7: Key Information and Tips




A Glance at Window 7 Default Browser

Understanding the Window 7 Default Browser

Hello, I'm Tracy, and today we're going to talk about the default browser in 7, a crucial aspect of your user experience on this operating system.

What is the Default Browser in Windows 7?

The default web browser in Windows 7 is Explorer 8. It is automatically installed on your system with the operating system, allowing users to browse the Internet immediately.

Features of Internet Explorer 8

Web Slices

This feature allows you to keep up with frequently updated sites directly from the IE8 toolbar.

InPrivate Browsing

InPrivate Browsing enables you to surf the web without leaving a trace on your computer, useful for private browsing.

SmartScreen Filter

It protects you from phishing websites that can steal your personal information.

Changing Your Default Browser

While Internet Explorer 8 is the default option, Windows 7 supports other browsers, including Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Safari. Users can download and set any of these as their default browser.
