Default Embedded Browser of Creo Parametric Changed to Chromium
User Interface Location: N/A
Release: Creo Parametric 7.0.7.0
What is the benefit of this enhancement?
In Creo 7.0.7.0 and later, the default embedded browser of Creo Parametric is Chromium.
Previously, Internet Explorer was the default browser. You can still set it as the default browser by using the configuration option windows_browser_type.
This change is made because Microsoft has announced the end of support for Internet Explorer starting June 15, 2022. While the embedded browser version of Internet Explorer will continue to function, it will no longer be supported in Creo 7.0, and if issues are encountered, PTC will not update the Internet Explorer integration.
We recommend that you use Chromium as the default embedded browser and stay up to date with the latest supported versions.
