I ran a report in Salesforce to find what browsers are used by Active Users with a logged in date filter of Today. I always use Chrome, never IE. On my windows 10, under setup > Control Panel, the default is Chrome. Yet the report shows the browser as IE11

When I go to Salesforce Setup > USers > Login History > downloaded the last 6 months history. The browser is Chrome.

What does the report show 'IE 11' ?

  • Do you have/use a tool like IETab (for Chrome) that changes the User-Agent string in the HTTP request? Are you using the Salesforce-provided DataLoader at all?

Logging in with the Salesforce-provided Data Loader shows up as being IE11 in the login history, just seems to be a part of how that tool is built.

You can tell it's DataLoader by looking at the "Application" column (which I don't see in my org, I had to download the 6 month login history to see it in the csv file).

Alternatively, the "Login Type" being either Remote Access 2.0 or Remote Access Client is another indicator (though you'd see that login type for anything that uses a connected app to authenticate with Salesforce).
