As a new released operating system from Microsoft, Windows 8 is much more different from its previous. For example, web browser in Windows 8 and the Surface RT supports Flash websites. It makes it impossible to support all websites in Windows 8. Today, let’s see how to add additional website to the supported list by the Windows 8 users themselves.
The Compatibility View (CV) list in the Internet Explorer 10 is specially used to enable specific sites to run with the built in Flash player, in this way, Microsoft ca manage which site goes on the list easily. Thinking about the elements such as performance, responsiveness, touch interface, security, privacy and battery life, it is much more valuable to discuss how sites which need Flash Player are added on the CV list in Internet Explorer 10.
Thus, if you want to know how to add sites you often visit and request flash player into your IE weblist, you come to the right place. The following guide will let you locally change the whitelist without being overridden.
Step 1. Open the whitelist:
C:\Users\[USER_NAME]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\IECompatData\iecompatdata.xml
Step 2. Find out the tags:
Code Domain>: <Flash> [... the domains are listed here...] < /Flash>
All these tags are whitelisted websites which support flash in Internet Explorer 10.
Step 3. Add your prepared website inside these tags.
For example, Code: <domain>YOURDESIREDDOMAIN.COM</domain> .
You can add as many websites here as you like.
Step 4. Delete the browsing history.
This is the last step. Just open IE 10 Metro and click WIN+ I (to open settings) Internet Options, find out the “Delete Browsing History” and click on the Delete button.
OK, it’s done. Just enjoy all the websites in your favorite list.
