Post by: Pureblood on October 14, 2006, 05:21:48 PM

IE 7 wont uninsall. I triend reinstalling and all it does is restart my computer. There is no uninstall option in the add or remove programs. I also searched google and it said to run something in run. it didn't work. The reson i was unstalling was because in IE 7 There was no bar at the top like the file, edit, favorite, etc. Any ideas? Or should i just restore my comp?

I don't use IE all that often, but I have IE7 installed for the wife on a couple computers
Just to clarify
When did you install IE7?
Is it IE7 RC1?
Right click an empty spot in the top toolbar and Select Menu Bar
That should give you the  File>Edit>View>Favorites, etc...
Click on HELP>>About Internet Explorer

You should be using
Version 7.0.5700.6
Let me know if that's the verison your running

Just as a double check, in Windows Add/remove programs
IE7 should be listed as "Windows Internet Explorer 7"
You may not want to uninstall it yet

But if you still do, let me know, we should be able to find a way  /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

It wasn't there. I fixed it though. Thanks for taking your time and posting i use firefox for just about everything. I fixed the problem by restoring to a couple hours ago. Then unistalling then reinstalling.

Thanks for posting back
That's why I was asking when you installed it  /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />
Thought a restore would come in handy
Although there should be an ununinstaller elsewhere on the computer
Just can't remember the directory off hand, we would of tracked it down though
