is there a way to delete all the IE folders

Hi, i have over 100 different folders in Internet Explorer. Since the computer is for another family member i need to clean it all. I do not find the posssibility to delete them, except one by one.

Do not want to reinstall IE either.

Any suggestions to get over with it fast?

thanks,

François

What folders do you mean - The favourites? I only have 18 in My program files/Internet explorer.

Hi François,

If you mean the Favorites (Favourites) in IE7, then you can go to C:\Users\(your username)\Favorites and delete them like any other files on the computer. You can select all of them and delete them this way.

If you are talking about some other folders, then please let us know.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Many thanks,
