Internet Explorative v11.1.1
What's new
- The Share button is back, with more options than 1.0 beta
- Changed the default search engine to DuckDuckGo for more privacy
- Brand-new macOS Installer, with a Applications folder and a Windows XP Bliss background, Windows version might come with this release
- New back button that is flat so it looks more like IE11
New Share menu, unfortunately I cannot get the native one working
One thing you need to know: the size of the app increased to 606.5 MB for unknown reasons, but memory usage is still quite low.
note: the "active http user-agent" section is fake. The AI model has no idea what it's doing.

What's New
