Google Chrome, alternative Linux à Microsoft Internet Explorer

Mis à jour le 18 octobre 2026

Notre avis

Google Chrome is a solid replacement for Microsoft Internet Explorer for anyone who needs a modern, standards‑compliant browser on Linux. It handles HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript well, syncs bookmarks and passwords, and offers a large extension ecosystem. Users who rely on legacy IE‑only features such as ActiveX, proprietary intranet sites, or old document modes will find Chrome lacking, so it suits most general web users and developers but not environments locked to IE‑specific behavior.

Ouvrir vos fichiers Microsoft Internet Explorer

Internet Explorer mainly works with standard web files like .html, .htm and the less common .mht archive format. Chrome opens .html and .htm without issue; .mht files can be viewed using a third‑party extension, but there is no built‑in support. Exporting IE‑specific settings or favorites can be done via HTML export, which Chrome can import.

Import IE bookmarks via the HTML export file.
Log in to Chrome with a Google account to sync passwords and history.

Questions fréquentes

Can Chrome run old ActiveX controls?

No, Chrome does not support ActiveX; you need a separate solution like IE mode in Edge or a virtual machine.

Will Chrome sync my IE passwords automatically?

Only if you export them to a CSV or HTML file and import them into Chrome; Chrome cannot read IE's password store directly.

Is Chrome safe for enterprise use on Linux?

Chrome receives regular security updates and supports policies via JSON files, making it suitable for most enterprise environments, though it lacks some Windows‑specific management features.
