How to uninstall Internet Explorer completely?

I'm trying to rid my computer of Internet Explorer completely. I have no use for him as I use Mozilla Firefox. I uninstalled Internet Explorer 8, but it restored Internet Explorer 7. My operating system is Vista. Please, please, help!

You can NOT.
IE 7 is part of the operating system. It cannot be uninstalled. He lives and dies with the system.

Just don't use it. Nothing else you can do about it.

    Since you have Windows XP, you really can't remove safely to the point that you are running.  Just stop using it.  Delete the icons, ehatever you can not see.  If you're low on space you trhink its removal would help - buy 1 GB USB key you eyeing and archive stuff.  * smile *.

  • can I uninstall internet explorer 8, after the installation of Foxfire

    I just installed Foxfire. I love it and want to keep it as my browser permanate. My question is if I can remove Internet Explorer 8.

    Thank you

    Walter Spain

    No. I am not sure that IE can be completely removed from Windows XP. I remember well, it is linked to the XP operating system. Remove IE8 in Control Panel > Add / Remove Programs will simply go back to the previous version of IE until you end up in IE6 (lots of security issues). If this is the case, it is better to keep IE8 on your system. If you need to make the Manual updates for Windows, you will need IE do.

    You can change your default browser Firefox:

  • How to reinstall internet explorer on Windows 7

    Internet Explorer start up then stop start error message.

    someone help please!

    Hello

    First of all, try resetting Internet Explorer as follows - be aware that this will remove bookmarks and saved passwords etc

    Open windows control panel, open Internet Options, click the Advanced tab, and then click the reset button.  Click 'Yes' or 'Ok' for all additional guests needed to complete the process.

    If the above does not correct the problem, try the following.

    Click on the Start Menu and select Control Panel.  Open programs and features, click on "Windows turn features on or off" and remove the check mark next to Internet Explorer.  Click Yes and then OK and then when done, restart the computer.

    When Windows has restarted, click the Start Menu and select Control Panel.  Open programs and features, click on "Windows turn features on or off" and re-enter the checkmark next to Internet Explorer.  Click Yes and then OK, and when it has finished installing, restart the computer again.

    Kind regards

  • How to store Internet Explorer running when the screen is locked?

    Hello! So, I am owner of a Surface... Yes! Somehow...

    Because Microsoft App Store refuses to give us of Pandora, Youtube and other needed applications, the only way to use these pages is through Internet Explorer...

    (in my opinion, they do it so that someone using Internet Explorer)

    Now, ok, I did that! I search for the pages I need and have pin them at the beginning... Yes, problem solved?

    NO.... The screen, if you don't touch anything, or move the cursor or something, it locks itself automatically after a certain time... and the music and the videos just stop playing.

    Now, when I go to Internet Options, I can't find anything to fix this. Change PC settings or... In customize, where it says lock screen Apps, it gives you the opportunity to choose "the apps run in the background...". ", but Internet Explorer is not available for this.

    Now, someone, anyone... tell me how that's possible! How can I leave Pandora running or a 1 hour running YouTube video?

    What are my options?

    1. setting of the Tablet does not interrupt or stop using the internet explore when the screen is locked... Is it still possible?

    2. the Tablet for only auto setting not lock screen when I use some applications, such as Internet Explorer (again probably not possible)

    3 magically App Store makes it available Youtube Pandora Facebook and other necessary apps (pfffff apparently does not have to spend)

    4. all that have worked for you guys... Any Suggestions?

    These are just little things that have made use of my annoying and incompetent little practical Surface... It's sad when smartphones can be more useful and practical than my Surface... really really sad. This comes from someone who wants this work effective and favourable way to the customer.

    Thank you for reading, for help, for viewing and understanding, I hope that I'm not the only one with this problem!

    You could try PRadio in the store:

  • Windows search index how to disable Internet Explorer history & MSOcache

    Win XP SP3

    I would like to deselect Internet explore history & MSOcache in the search indexer in Control Panel > Indexing Options.

    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/IE/Forum/IE8-windows_other/remove-Internet-Explorer-history-from-indexing/a3fa70e3-0f57-40E9-b1c7-84edcc87c3b4?page=1&TM=1323255495109#footer>

    On the selection of control panel > Indexing Options the Indexing Options dialog shows Internet Explorer history as an included location but I can't find a way to deselect.

    This place does not appear in the change in the locations dialog. I tried left and do a right click, push all the buttons and so on without result.

    I also note that under C: MSOcache selected but grayed out there. If I try to disable the ToolTip message appears "can't deselect because you must first select the parameter" Index this folder for making faster "in the files properties Advanced attributes. For me this counter intuitive: surely the point should not even in the search indexer if this parameter is not defined, and it takes everything first to allow a quick search...? !

  • is it possible to uninstall internet explore if I use another internet server?

    I only use google chrome

    You cannot delete this is to say that it is part of your operating system. Any reason you want to remove IE? You can use it simply not.
     
    Control Panel | Programs | Default programs | Set your default programs. Make chrome the default browser.
     
    In the control panel. Programs and features. Turn Windows features on and off, you can turn off Internet Explorer, but I don't see the need.
