Windows 10 Internet Explorer Windows 8.1 Windows 7 More…Less Support for Internet Explorer 11 has ended on June 15, 2022 Internet Explorer 11 will no longer be accessible after February 14, 2023. If any site you visit needs Internet Explorer 11, you can reload it with Internet Explorer mode in Microsoft Edge. We recommend you use Microsoft Edge for a faster, more secure and more modern web browsing experience. Get started with Microsoft Edge Add-ons are apps that Internet Explorer uses to interact with web content like videos and games. Toolbars and extensions are also types of add-ons. Some common add-ons are Adobe Flash, Quicktime, and Silverlight. Internet Explorer is designed to provide an add-on free experience, and will play HTML5 and many Adobe Flash videos without needing to install a separate add-on. You’ll only be able to install and use add-ons in Internet Explorer for the desktop. If you’re trying to view a page that requires add-ons, view it in the desktop: swipe up from the bottom of the screen (or right-click) to bring up the app commands, select the Page tools button , and then select View in the desktop. Note: In Windows RT, add-ons aren’t supported by either Internet Explorer or Internet Explorer for the desktop.

Installing and using add-ons

If you’re missing an add-on that you need to view a page, Internet Explorer will let you know, and will prompt you to install the add-on. Some add-ons come pre-installed by other apps or your PC’s manufacturer.

To view installed add-ons

1. Open Internet Explorer, select the Tools button , and then select Manage add-ons.
2. Under Show, select All add-ons.

To turn add-ons on

1. Open Internet Explorer, select the Tools button , and then select Manage add-ons.
2. Under Show, select All add-ons.
3. Select the add-on, Enable, and then select Close.

Turning off and removing add-ons

Add-ons can sometimes cause browsers to run slowly and crash, or they might pose a security or compatibility risk. You can turn off specific add-ons to help increase your browsing speed, or if you suspect they’re causing problems for Internet Explorer. You can also remove add-ons that you’re no longer using from your PC. It’s a good idea to delete add-ons if you suspect they’re causing performance, compatibility, or security problems.

To turn off add-ons

1. Open Internet Explorer, select the Tools button , and then select Manage add-ons.
2. Under Show, select All add-ons and then select the add-on you want to turn off.
3. Select Disable, and then Close.

To remove add-ons from your PC

Note: Not all add-ons can be removed. Some add-ons are necessary for Internet Explorer and your PC to work correctly.

1. Open Internet Explorer, select the Tools button , and then select Manage add-ons.
2. Under Show, select All add-on and then select the add-on you want to delete.
3. If the add-on can be deleted, you’ll see the Remove option. Select Remove and then Close.

The risks of installing add-ons

While add-ons can make your browsing experience better by giving you access to great web content, some add-ons can pose security, privacy, or performance risks. Make sure any add-ons you install are from a trusted source.

Enhanced Protected Mode and add-ons

Enhanced Protected Mode helps protect your PC and personal data from malware and other attacks. When it’s turned on, add-ons such as toolbars, extensions, and browser helper objects can only run if they’re compatible with Enhanced Protected Mode. You’ll be notified if an add-on is incompatible. If you need to run an incompatible add-on, you can turn off Enhanced Protected Mode in the desktop browser. Note: Enhanced Protected Mode helps protect your PC from malware and other attacks. Only turn it off if you’re sure about increasing the level of risk to your PC.

To turn on or off Enhanced Protected Mode

1. Open Internet Explorer, select the Tools button, and then select Internet Options.
2. On the Advanced tab, under Security, select (or clear) the Enable Enhanced Protected Mode check box, and then select OK. You’ll need to restart your PC before this setting takes effect.

The Add-ons section lets you manage secondary scripts, called “Add-ons” that extends Blender’s functionality.
In this section you can search, install, enable and disable Add-ons. Blender Preferences Add-ons section.

Finding Add-ons

Searching

Blender comes with some pre-installed Add-ons already, ready to be enabled.
But you can also add your own, or any interesting ones you find on the web.

Supported Level

Blender’s add-ons are split into two groups depending on who writes/supports them:

• Official: Add-ons that are written by Blender developers.
• Community: Add-ons that are written by people in the Blender community.

Enabled Add-ons Only

Shows only enabled add-ons for the current Category.

Category

Add-ons are divided into categories by what areas of Blender they affect.

Installing Add-ons

There are hundreds of add-ons that are not distributed with Blender and are developed by others.
To add them to the list of other add-ons, they must be installed into Blender. To install these, use the Install… button and
use the File Browser to select the .zip or .py add-on file. Now the add-on will be installed, however not automatically enabled.
The search field will be set to the add-on’s name (to avoid having to look for it),
Enable the add-on by checking the enable checkbox.

Refresh

Scans the Add-on Directory for new add-ons.

Tip User-Defined Add-on Path You can also create a personal directory containing new add-ons and configure your files path in
the File Paths section of the Preferences. To create a personal script directory:

1. Create an empty directory in a location of your choice (e.g. my_scripts).
2. Add a subdirectory under my_scripts called addons
   (it must have this name for Blender to recognize it).
3. Open the File Paths section of the Preferences.
4. Set the Scripts file path to point to your script directory (e.g. my_scripts).
5. Save the preferences and restart Blender for it to recognize the new add-on location.

Now when you install add-ons you can select the Target Path when installing 3rd party scripts.
Blender will copy newly installed add-ons under the directory selected in your Preferences.

Enabling & Disabling Add-ons

To enable or disable an add-on check or uncheck the box to the right
of the add-ons shown in the figure below. Enabling an add-on. The add-on functionality should be immediately available. Note Add-ons that activate or change multiple hotkeys have a special system of activation.
For example, with the 3D Viewport Pie Menus add-on
for each menu there is a selection box to activate the menu and its hotkey. Tip If the Add-on does not activate when enabled,
check the Console window
for any errors that may have occurred.

Add-on Information

You can click the arrow at the left of the add-on box to see more information, such as
its location, a description and a link to the documentation.
Here you can also find a button to report a bug specific of this add-on.

Add-on Preferences

Some add-ons may have their own preferences which can be found
in the Preferences section of the add-on information box. Some add-ons use this section for example to enable/disable
certain functions of the add-on. Sometimes these might even all default to off.
So it is important to check if the enabled add-on has any particular preferences.

How to remove plugins, extensions, and add-ons from Firefox

Add-ons in Firefox can be useful because they can help you block ads and pop-ups, manage your passwords, make your browsing more secure, and make online shopping easier. But add-ons can also get outdated and buggy, and they can let third parties track your browsing behavior. In that case, you may want to remove them. Here’s how to remove add-ons — including plugins, extensions, and themes — from Firefox:

1. In an open browser window, click the hamburger menu (three horizontal lines) and choose Add-ons and themes. Or use the keyboard shortcut: ctrl + shift + A.
2. Select Extensions, then click the ellipsis icon on the add-on you want to remove.
3. Select Remove in the drop-down list.

If you only want to disable the add-on temporarily, click the blue toggle so it turns gray. The Firefox extension is now disabled. You can also easily remove extensions from Chrome and other web browsers with a similar process. And be sure to check out the best security and privacy extensions on Chrome before adding any new ones.

Remove add-ons from Firefox Safe Mode

If you need to fix an extension that’s become buggy, you can remove add-ons from Firefox Safe Mode (or Troubleshoot Mode). In Safe Mode, add-ons are automatically disabled, but you might not be able to access the Add-ons Manager to check them further. But, you can still delete these add-ons in Safe Mode. Here’s how to remove add-ons in Firefox Safe Mode:

1. In an open browser window, click the hamburger menu (three horizontal lines) and choose Help.
2. Select Troubleshoot Mode.
3. Choose Restart to confirm.
4. A second dialog appears, reminding you that all Firefox extensions, plugins, and add-ons will be disabled. Choose Open to continue to Troubleshoot Mode.

Once Firefox is open in Troubleshoot Mode, follow the same process for removing add-ons in normal mode. While all Firefox extensions are disabled, you can remove, report, and manage add-ons.

Protect your device against suspicious extensions

Extensions can make browsing easier, more convenient, and more secure. Most extensions and add-ons are safe, easy to install, and free. But the increase in free add-ons also means more opportunities for browser-hijacking extensions to infect your device and steal your data. Regularly manage your add-ons to clear out junk. And monitor other potential malware sources with a malware removal tool, which detects suspicious downloads and removes them from your device. Avast One keeps your browser secure by constantly scanning for viruses and other malware, wherever they’re found. Our Smart Scan feature detects suspicious add-ons automatically, preventing them from infecting your browser and your device. Smart Scan also flags unsafe search engines and vulnerable websites so you can further strengthen your online defenses — all completely free.

Why is it important to manage Firefox add-ons?

Managing Firefox add-ons helps ensure they’re up to date and working as intended, and that nothing has been added without your knowledge — browser add-ons riddled with malware can sometimes be quietly installed by malicious sites. Most add-ons require certain permissions to function — including access to your browsing history or other data. Deleting the add-ons you don’t use prevents your data from being shared unnecessarily. For added privacy before using an add-on regularly, you can test it while using Firefox’s Private Browsing mode. Sometimes, add-ons (like some ad blockers) can make your browser buggy or make websites difficult to access. These add-ons can drain your device’s memory and slow down Firefox, which isn’t the fastest browser to begin with. Regularly reviewing your browser add-ons lets you see if they’re hogging your memory, and browsing with your Firefox extensions disabled lets you test if they’re actually improving your experience. Some add-ons can introduce bugs or make your browser slow or unresponsive. Before you install a browser add-on, check the reviews and required data permissions. If the add-on has a parent website, check that the website is safe — this information will help you decide whether the add-on is reliable. Once you’ve installed your trusted add-ons, use an automatic browser cleanup tool to help keep your library of Firefox browser extensions clear of clutter.
