How to remove a script if browser is IE10

How can I remove a script if the browser is IE10?

I tried to do it like this:

<!--[if !IE]-->
    <script type="text/javascript" src="js/script.js"></script>
<!--[endif]-->

But since IE10 doesn't support conditional comments anymore, it still loads the script.

Any ideas?

You can achieve this by appending this script tag in head if the browser is not IE10 by using this code in javascript:

    **//detect IE10**
    var isIE10 = false;
    /*@cc_on
     if (/^10/.test(@_jscript_version)) {
     isIE10 = true;
     }
     @*/
    if(!isIE10){
       **//append script tag to head if not IE10**
        var script = document.createElement('script');
        script.type = '"text/javascript"';
        script.src = 'js/script.js';
        document.head.appendChild(script);
    }

I hope this may help you. Thanks.

Use feature detection in your code, not browser sniffing.

Browser sniffing is unreliable and subject to random changes. Detecting user agent capabilities is by far a better approach to coding.
