Iniyila 2 Report post Posted March 18, 2011 If you want to completely remove internet explorer from your computer then just install linux, so you will not see anything related to internet explorer anymore . internet explorer is a basis for microsoft windows, it is forced by microsoft so many other abilities of you windows depends on it and with progress of windows this relation even goes further. so if you don't like IE and you want to delete it completely from your computer you don't have any other way except that go for other operating system.

iGuest 3 Report post Posted March 11, 2012 hi, just found this solution while surfing the web, be sure to have another internet browser before you do this..... go to control panel and click add or remove programs, on the left pane click "add/remove windows components" scroll down and uncheck internet explorer, clik next then finish: now download "unlocker tool" and install it.... browse to program Files and delete internet explorer folder: :first, windows will not allow you, just click ok and unlocker will popup a window showing the process using it, below the popup window, clik the tab "unlock all". you can now delete the folder "internet explorer".... empty recycle bin and restart PC: .after restart "internet explorer" folder on program files will be visible again but the installation files are gone, its just a folder now... and that's how get rid of IE..... as I've said "Do this at your own risk" and by the way, done this on XP, havnt tried it on windows7.... cheers!
