- Display web pages using IE within Chrome. Use Java, Silverlight, ActiveX, Sharepoint, and more. IE Tab exactly emulates Internet Explorer, and enables you to test your web pages with different versions of IE (IE7 - IE11) Please note that IE Tab for Windows does require the use of a separate executable, ietabhelper.exe.
- Hikvision’s solution was to use alternate, not-as-secure browsers. They further committed to produce updated firmware. Years later, Hikvision has yet to address this issue with a firmware release. Because of no NPAPI support in Chrome (and most other browsers), this caused problems for vendors like Hikvision.

Many users want to view their Hikvision cameras or access the DVR/NVR using Google Chrome. What plugin to install on Chrome? How to see a Hikvision camera or NVR using Chrome? Since Hikvision cannot be accessed directly using Google Chrome, you need to do a few tricks. In this step-by-step guide we will show how to access a Hikvision device (IP camera, NVR, DVR) using Google Chrome.
We’ll add the extension to Chrome; right now it says “Chrome IE is now installed:” You will see this little icon right here: when it’s “On” that means it’s using Google Chrome and when it’s off it is using Internet Explorer. So you see you can switch from Internet Explorer to Chrome within the same interface of Chrome.
And let’s face it, Chrome is better and faster than Internet Explorer. The Hikvision experience will be much more comfortable and smoother if you’re using the Chrome browser. You’ll be able to see the live feed, playback, modify the settings, etc. If you think Mozilla Firefox is better, read the instructions in this link.
How to access a Hikvision device in Chrome?
To view your device using the Chrome browser, you must add the IE tab extension to Google Chrome.
