The Automatic Version Synchronization page of the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard 11 runs the synchronization process every time you run the wizard, downloading the Internet Explorer 11 Setup file to your computer. The Setup file includes the required full and express packages.

Important
You must run the Automatic Version Synchronization page once for each operating system and language combination of IE.

  • Version available on your machine. The version of IE11 that’s running on the computer that’s also running the IE Customization Wizard 11.

  • Latest version available on web. The most recently released version of the IE Customization Wizard 11. To get this value, the wizard compares the version of IE on your computer to the latest version of IE on the Downloads site. If the versions are different, you’ll be asked to update your version of IE.

  • Disk space required. The amount of space on your hard drive needed to update the browser.

  • Disk space available. The amount of hard drive space available on the computer that’s running the IE Customization Wizard 11.
