Resolved [Problems installing/removing IE9]

I find that I have a possible glitch with IE 9 installed. Each time that I try to reinstall, a caption shows that it is the wrong edition for my setup or that installed is the most current version. I thought in uninstalling IE 9, but I fail to find IE 9 in uninstal programs in Control Panel. Suggestion of help will be
most appreciated.

Fault : clicking Internet Explorer icon at bootup, requires to use the Diagnostic window to clear error.

 

Is the OS Vista or Win 7 Home (as per your System specs) ?

 

My current OS is Vista Premium 64bit. I was forced to fall back on Vista as computer refused to open Window 7 Premium 64bit, desktop icons were not displayed on monitor screen. I tried to reinstal to factory settings three times Vista/Windows 7 upgrade, with the same error each time. In current Vista settting, computer is not stable in operation. Thanks for your response.

 

You should check your RAM & hard disk before proceeding any further. RAM issues are notoriously difficult to pinpoint & easiest if you can swap the RAM with some other computer.

 

Where did you look for IE9 in the control panel? How To Uninstall IE9

 

Yes a fully agree in what you say, unfortunately I have no other computer for my disposal. At each power up, Internet Explorer 9 fails to instal. Clicking the check for error, starts the diagnostic tool that shows Windows is unable to find cause. On clicking manually, error is cleared, and Windows Internet 9 starts as normal and remains until the next power up. I have tried to reinstal IE 9, this shows that current installed IE9 is best and no instal takes place.Question is how can current installed IE 9 be uninstalled as it is not listed in installed software programs.

 

Bobby I added a link to my previous post.

 

In control Panel under Uninstall Programs -- IE 9 not listed.
Tried to install IE 9 at MS Website. Latest version downloaded as suggested and run, caption "IE did not finish installing ". Other previous caption "Later version installed ". Thanks for help.

 

Navigate Start\Control Panel\Programs and Features. In the left panel Click on View installed updates. Scroll down the list until you find the Update for IE9 Highlight the entry click uninstall. If you do not plan on using IE. You can also disable/turn it off in Turn Windows features on or off.

 

I appreciate your last suggestion, and deleted IE9 update. Then installed the new version of IE9, caption again showed "IE did not finish installing ". Update removal restarted computer after session completed. I still have original IE9 installation on computer and is working normally. Certainly I will have to await my next computer power up to see if any changes to running IE9. Thank you again for your help, and noted for future reference.

 

I made a further power up and error remains. Requires Windows Network Diagnostic to be run. Caption "Problem can not be repaired automatically ". Clicking of caption finally makes IE9 open normally. This requires to be run at each power up of computer.

 

Internet icon is no longer visible on Desktop or find any reference to open Internet Explorer. I am now unable to access any Web sites.

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer. Right click on iexplore then click on Send to Desktop

 

Thanks, now have Explorer Shortcut icon back and working. Error persists with re-installing IE9, as it refuses to intall completely, even when uninstalling IE9 update.

 

At the time IE9 was working normally. Computer at times shows up errors and can also be slow at times.

 

Remains the same at power up.

 

First off a large amount of start up programs can cause issues, so lets get that out of the way.

I suggest that you download CCLEANER then run it, hit the option's button then settings,put a tick next to Run Ccleaner when the computer starts.
Also when in options go to advanced tab and put a tick next to close program after cleaning.
This will automate the temporary file removal on your machine and keep it speedy.
Disable all of the start ups on the machine except your antivirus.
To disable hit the tools button then the start up button,then disable.

Download and install the windows all in one repair tool, you may need to transfer the program via usb or cd, since you are having issues with internet explorer. Or simply boot into safe mode with networking, to see if you have no issues (downloading) using IE there.

I really hope this information finds you well.

 

Error happens at every power up. If you do not shut computer down at all during a normal us of computer, then error is not present.
I have CCleaner Pro and used several times a day.
I will have to study in depth topic from Malnutrition, report later. Than you for responses.
