Why isn't my IE8 Developer Tools working?


It used to work and now when I press F12 nothing happens...the window does NOT appear. I've uninstalled any other toolbars I've installed and tried resetting by security settings in IE...nothing.

I'm using Windows 7 beta


Solution

  • Maybe someone disabled them?
    Here's how you do that.

    Basically: Check the following registry key:

    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\IEDevTools

    In the worst case you can remove the whole key. This wil revert the settings back to default.
