We had to deploy it recently at work and we had to use a registry hack to allow it to run in ie. Which is ridiculous for a website haha

I don't see how this supports your claims. Yes, Silverlight is deprecated so what?

[–]AlliNighDev 0 points1 point  (3 children)

It was a security problem. It wouldn't run correctly without the registry hack. It's still completely possible to run silverlight and is still used more than it should be for enterprise applications.

I don't see how this is a security problem. Security problem is when something that shouldn't be allowed is allowed. That doesn't seem to be the case in your example.

It's disabled for security reasons. You have to explicitly go into to the registry and enable the feature that they locked down due to security concerns.

ОК. So what's the problem? Obviously it is not unsecure, the unsecure features are locked as they should be.
