I have a Dell laptop and just downloaded the free version of the new Windows 10. After installation, i was requested to update my Safari browser to the latest version. Any ideas?
Thanks to ALL!
iPad 2, Other OS, Windows 10 Dell Laptop
mmmm...this may be a bit cold, but I've recently bought my first iPhone to collapse two android devices and an iPod classic into one and I'm looking to use as many embedded apps as possible (subject to usability preferences) and so am looking to move from chrome to safari ...
If safari is 'dead' what's this?
Correct. That is no more an Apple Product than Firefox or Chrome are.
The website claims falsely it is from Apple.
With that said, not sure what Safari for Windows would have to do with an iPhone.
The iPhone has its own Safari version which is developed and maintained by Apple.
My post error out so I tried again only to discover that both of them were posted.
Apple has dropped support for Safari on Windows years ago. If you are able to find any place to download Safari for Windows, it will be completely out of date especially for security.
There is no Safari for Windows 10. It was discontinued years ago.
If you were using an old version of Safari for Windows on your laptop before updating to Windows 10. You should no longer be using it. Use Firefox, or Chrome instead.
You may want to try Microsoft's new Edge browser for Windows 10. It doesn't support extensions yet but does work very well and is already on your Windows 10 computer.
dear sir name is peter i have been useing safari on my windows 10 compture laptop for quite some time no pros.
As said, Safari for Windows was discontinued years ago by Apple.
If you are using something on Windows 10, it is unlikely ot be Safari. Possibly Internet Explorer, or even Microsoft's new Edge browser.
The last version of Safari for Windows was Safari 5, and it cannot be installed on Windows 10 at all. Its not even available for download from Apple anymore.
I would not be so sure of that. You might want to read http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/back-from-the-dead-using-apples-abandoned -safari-for-windows-today where they say that the ancient version of Safari will run on Windows 10.
Interesting...
Thanks for the link.
I stand corrected. It can be installed.
Though I would still be weary of using such an old browser. If only for its lack of security updates.
OH! I am in total concurrence with you about it being of questionable usefulness both from how old it is which implies security problems but also the questionable sources from which this version would now have to be obtained from.

Questionable indeed. 😉
Strange, I have Windows 10 and running Safari 5.1.7 (7534.57.2)

You shouldn't be using it. It's 4 years out of date, no longer supported, and a huge security risk. Please use a current browser, such as Edge, Opera, Firefox, Chrome....take your pick. Just because Safari can work on Windows 10 means nothing.
The fact that it can be used, does not mean it should be used.
As already discussed above, its old and has not been updated in several years. As such it is very insecure, and many websites will complain it is to old and to update it.
Since it cannot be updated, the best course of action is to use a different currently updated browser.
what is the correct Safari version for Windows 10?
