Internet Explorer hangs
When I opened IE6 it would hang as soon as I type or clicked anything. So I
tried installing IE7 Beta 3 and that did the same thing. So I removed IE7 Beta 3 and tried reinstalling IE6 from Microsoft's website and it refused to install IE6 because it said there was a later version on the computer even though I removed the later version. I tried deleting the Internet Explorer folder from the computer but it wouldn't let me do that. What I need is a working copy of IE6 or higher on the computer. How can I achieve this? Robert |

Robert Reinstall Internet explorer: insert the windows install cd start – run – and type or copy/paste: rundll32.exe setupapi, InstallHintSection DefaultInstall132 c:\Windows\inf\ie.inf hit enter Now if you want to repair Internet Explorer: Start – run – type or copy/paste sfc /scannow (press enter) wait and follow the instructions or Start – search , and choose files or folders, click the more advanced options and check “search hidden files and folders”, now type: ie.inf , look on C drive...click search now The correct ie.inf file is located at the windows\inf folder...Right click the ie.inf file and choose install from the drop-down menu that appears..Restart computer when files are finish copied. |
