Is there a way to have different titles on different IE windows at the same time?
I’m looking for a way to customize each IE window “on the fly” while i’m logged in.
I have removed the key but then title is suffix by ‘-Internet Explorer ‘.
If we keep it blank then it is suffix by ‘-‘.
My automation script is failing because of this. Please check.
Thanks,
