Sorry for the double, but i need and answer😱

my system was all wacked out... had to use system restore... now my java and IE 6 are fouled up... and support is telling me to reinstall IE 6 then the java...

well i check add/remove

even when i check the box to remove it.. it doesnt help, is there some kind of freakin repair feature? something to get me back up and running...

when i go to run the setup for IE 6 i download that 497 kb file then it says setup has reconized a newer version.. setup will not continue... and i need IE 6 reinstalled...

I even updated my java, but nothin!!!!!! :|


sorry mods, if anything please lock my other post, as i havea better shot on here to get an answer! 😛

format HD, reinstall Windows

alternatively,

format HD, install Mandrake, and never experience this sort of trouble ever again
 
i read that... but it clearly didnt explain how to do it under Windows XP???!!!? is there any way just to do a repair... or download the entire internet explorer file?!?

Calm down dude.

Listen, open up My Computer, My Documents, or any other folder on your computer. What does it open up in? An Internet Explorer window. If you uninstall IE, Windows won't display any folders, thus when you boot up your computer you wont see any icons, no start menu, nothing.

Search around in your backup discs, your restoration files or something. If you can find IE in there, then see if you can replace your current IE.

And lay off the coffee. 🙂
 
dude, i fully understand, don't drink coffee..

i don't want to get rid of it, need to repair/restore something...

 
my teacher is having a problem too--we think he installed IE 6, and now something went wrong, and the OS (2000) is messed up. We keep telling him to format, or ghost the other computer (exactly the same thing) to this one, and he says, no, it still works! pfft! I know no way to "uninstall" internet explorer like you would, say an Adobe program, or anything else.
 
bjc112,

I figured out to have Java run correctly in IE6 / Windows 2000.... maybe, this will help you:

1. Under control panel, repair IE6.
2. Under control panel, uninstall all instances of Java.
3. Download and install this.

Are you sure you're not getting Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer mixed up? Sure the GUI front end is similar, but not the same. Removing IE 6.0 isn't going to disable Windows Explorer. The only issue would be folders/files that have HTML/Web content enabled that use IE as the method of displaying. The folders will still display contents and files will still be accessible.
