申请书是7。我已经在文章 浏览器仿真中将 Internet Explorer 改为9,但是怎样才能在浏览器控件中使用已安装的最新版本呢?

I saw Veer's answer. I think it's right, but it did not I work for me. Maybe I am using .NET 4 and am using 64x OS so kindly check this.
You may put in setup or check it in start-up of your application:
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var appName = Process.GetCurrentProcess().ProcessName + ".exe";
SetIE8KeyforWebBrowserControl(appName);
}
private void SetIE8KeyforWebBrowserControl(string appName)
{
RegistryKey Regkey = null;
try
{
// For 64 bit machine
if (Environment.Is64BitOperatingSystem)
Regkey = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(@"SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Main\\FeatureControl\\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION", true);
else //For 32 bit machine
Regkey = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(@"SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Main\\FeatureControl\\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION", true);
// If the path is not correct or
// if the user haven't priviledges to access the registry
if (Regkey == null)
{
MessageBox.Show("Application Settings Failed - Address Not found");
return;
}
string FindAppkey = Convert.ToString(Regkey.GetValue(appName));
// Check if key is already present
if (FindAppkey == "8000")
{
MessageBox.Show("Required Application Settings Present");
Regkey.Close();
return;
}
// If a key is not present add the key, Key value 8000 (decimal)
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(FindAppkey))
Regkey.SetValue(appName, unchecked((int)0x1F40), RegistryValueKind.DWord);
// Check for the key after adding
FindAppkey = Convert.ToString(Regkey.GetValue(appName));
if (FindAppkey == "8000")
MessageBox.Show("Application Settings Applied Successfully");
else
MessageBox.Show("Application Settings Failed, Ref: " + FindAppkey);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show("Application Settings Failed");
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
finally
{
// Close the Registry
if (Regkey != null)
Regkey.Close();
}
}
You may find messagebox.show, just for testing.
Keys are as the following:
11001 (0x2AF9) - Internet Explorer 11. Webpages are displayed in IE11
edge mode, regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive.
11000 (0x2AF8) - Internet Explorer 11. Webpages containing
standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE11 edge mode.
Default value for IE11.
10001 (0x2711)- Internet Explorer 10. Webpages are displayed in IE10 Standards
mode, regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive.
10000 (0x2710)- Internet Explorer 10. Webpages containing standards-based
!DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE10 Standards mode. Default
value for Internet Explorer 10.
9999 (0x270F) - Internet Explorer 9. Webpages are displayed in IE9
Standards mode, regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive.
9000 (0x2328) - Internet Explorer 9. Webpages containing
standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE9 mode.
8888 (0x22B8) - Webpages are displayed in IE8 Standards mode,
regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive.
8000 (0x1F40) - Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE
directives are displayed in IE8 mode.
7000 (0x1B58) - Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE
directives are displayed in IE7 Standards mode.
I saw applications like Skype use 10001. I do not know.

The setup application will change the registry. You may need to add a line in the Manifest File to avoid errors due to permissions of change in registry:

I was able to implement Luca's solution, but I had to make a few changes for it to work. My goal was to use D3.js with a Web Browser control for a Windows Forms Application (targeting .NET 2.0). It is working for me now. I hope this can help someone else.

Also, I added a string (ie_emulation) to the project's settings with the value of 11999. This value seems to be working for IE11(11.0.15).
Next, I had to change the permission for my application to allow access to the registry. This can be done by adding a new item to your project (using VS2012). Under the General Items, select Application Manifest File. Change the level from asInvoker to requireAdministrator (as shown below).
If someone reading this is trying to use D3.js with a webbrowser control, you may have to modify the JSON data to be stored within a variable inside your HTML page because D3.json uses XmlHttpRequest (easier to use with a webserver). After those changes and the above, my windows forms are able to load local HTML files that call D3.
What Happens if I Set the FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION Document Mode Value Higher than the IE Version on the Client?
Obviously, the browser control can only support a document mode that is less than or equal to the IE version installed on the client. Using the FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION key works best for enterprise line of business apps where there is a deployed and support version of the browser. In the case you set the value to a browser mode that is a higher version than the browser version installed on the client, the browser control will choose the highest document mode available.
The simplest thing is to put a very high decimal number ...
int BrowserVer, RegVal;
// get the installed IE version
using (WebBrowser Wb = new WebBrowser())
BrowserVer = Wb.Version.Major;
// set the appropriate IE version
if (BrowserVer >= 11)
RegVal = 11001;
else if (BrowserVer == 10)
RegVal = 10001;
else if (BrowserVer == 9)
RegVal = 9999;

RegVal = 8888;

RegVal = 7000;

Rather than changing the RegKey, I was able to put a line in the header of my HTML:

<head>
<!-- Use lastest version of Internet Explorer -->
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
<!-- Insert other header tags here -->
</head>
...

A cheap and easy workaround for it is that you can just put a value which is bigger than 11001 in the FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION key. Then it takes the latest IE that is available in the system.
A better solution in form of WebView2 is available now. The WebView2 control uses Microsoft Edge which is based on Chromium as the rendering engine to display the web content in native apps. This control can be used in Winforms as well as in WPF applications.
To use this in Winforms, just install the Microsoft.Web.WebView2NugetPackage. After that, the WebView2 will be available to for your application!
