If "mshtml.dll" is still there, and you can still instantiate instances of it, then MSIE is still there.

- adzm 4y agoThankfully; there are entire (completely-local) applications designed around MSHTML.
- meltyness 4y agoInvoke-WebRequest still depends on some of the internals too probably, but who knows?
- jchw 4y agoThat was finally fixed, apparently in PowerShell 6.0, and now -UseBasicParsing is just a noop. Kinda crazy that it ever did this by default, especially considering PowerShell used to alias curl to Invoke-Webrequest, which could lead to surprise JavaScript execution. Definitely one of the worst gotchas in Windows PowerShell.
