Solved internet explorer
- Thread starter black7
- Start date
Hello Black7, and welcome to Vista Forums.
Sorry, but Internet Explorer is part of the OS and cannot be uninstalled. If you wanted to use another browser like Firefox instead, then you can just make Firefox your default web browser program to not use Internet Explorer by default.
Hope this helps some,
Shawn

Welcome to the Forum
Brink is of course correct, IE cannot be uninstalled. You can disable it, however, if you desire. Probably the easiest way is to type, (in search) Turn windows features on and off. When the screen is visible just uncheck the IE box. You will not be able to surf until you recheck the box or have another broswer that can be used.
I, however, do not see the need to disable the browser. If you make an alternative browser your default, you will use only the new browser unless you decide to use IE, again, for a specific reason.
Good Luck and enjoy Windows 7.

This is one of my thing that is not working on my PC to. The internet explorer will not pop up. I us Firefox all the time. But there are thing you need this one. I do not know thing about PC and what is going on. So it make it hard to find help.Some forum give me code and all kind of thing to do and get so lost.
I thing the big thing that is going on my explorer will stop a lot.
Will I'm here chat let me put in about my browser. I have gone to Firefox forum and asked but have not got help. So when I try to brows web pages it take a long time to load and some time it will not load all the way. so can you show me where to get help here for this thing. I have run Comodo and Malwarebytes .

If I understand you correctly, IE does not make it self available to browse and you are using Fire Fox. The reason for that is that you have FF as your default browser. If you want to use Explorer, just type internet explorer, in the search box. When it appears, just click on it.
If that does not work it means that it is turned off.
To turn it on, in search, type turn windows features on or off.
Then when the box appears, just check internet explorer.
If you feel that it works too slow, try with the Anti Virus turned off. If that makes IE work faster, use Microsoft Security Essentials rather than your current Anti Virus.
If you have any further questions, I will be glad to assist you.

As far as I am concerned and many at this forum. All that is needed is a firewall, Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes and all are free.
If IE does not work go to the search box, type in windows features turn on, click on that, when you see it, on the screen and then check the IE box. Turn off computer, boot up and it should work.
