Встроенный в операционные системы Internet Explorer, used to open Internet websites by default, many users do not like what they do not like, most people are genuinely annoyed. Almost every second user asks the question of how to remove the "Internet Explorer" 7th version and or any other. As it turns out, this is not so simple.
Unfortunately, it is impossible to uninstall the built-in browser in any Windows-based system using the usual method through the programs and components section, which is located in the Control Panel.
The point here is that the original "sewn" (notupdated) version of the browser in the list of installed applications is not displayed. But, if an update was made or a higher version was installed, it will be visible in the list. Here it is something you can remove without problems. For example, how to delete the "Internet Explorer" 8 or 9 installed on top of the seventh modification? There is nothing easier than to highlight the program and click on the delete button in the panel from the top. But the catch is that yes, indeed, the eighth version will retire, but the previous one (the seventh) will remain untouched.
In principle, many do not like that the built-inthe browser is used by the system by default. So is not it easier to simply change it to another and turn it off as unnecessary? The program does not take much space. And in some situations (for example, when entering the interface of the router) can sometimes come in handy.
In this case, the question of how to remove "InternetExplorer "from" Windows 7 "or from any other system, is not affected. It all boils down to using the disabling of the program element of the system, first changing the program settings by default.
To do this, simply enter the program section andcomponents, where the list of Windows components simply removes the checkbox from the line containing the name of the browser. After that, a warning will appear that disabling this item may affect the operation of other registered applications. Nothing wrong. We agree and wait for the end of the shutdown process. Upon completion, you will need to restart.
Finally, a few words about the removal. Suppose that for some reason the browser does not need to be uninstalled. How to delete "Internet Explorer" from "Windows 7"?
Here you need to use either commandline, or the PowerShell console, which, by and large, is the same. The first one through the "Run" menu is invoked with the cmd command, the second one is powershell. Both processes should be run exclusively on behalf of the admin.
Далее необходимо прописать строку такого contents: FORFILES / P% WINDIR% servicingPackages / M Microsoft-Windows-InternetExplorer - *. mum / with "cmd / with echo Uninstalling package @fname && start / w pkgmgr / up: @fname / norestart".
After that, press the enter key.If you receive an error message, click "OK", then in the "Explorer" we find the folder with the program, through the PCM we call the Unlocker line, unlock the file and repeat the operation (at least in official distributions of Windows 7, the Unlocker application embedding own links in the context menu, there is).
Но и это еще не все.After removing the browser, you will need to find the browser folder in the same Explorer, using the search engine for this purpose and delete it along with all the content. To be faithful, it is advisable to call the system registry editor (regedit in the "Run" console) and search (Ctrl + F) with the browser name to find all the keys, and then delete them. But this mainly applies only to those cases when the browser was not updated in the system.
Finally, in the question of how to remove the "Internet Explorer" from "Windows 7", you can use universal uninstaller programs.
Consider this process using the example of iObitUninstaller. It has its own characteristics. The fact is that the browser is not visible anywhere (even when using Win Manager). But you can use the special function of forced deletion, and in the full path to the program folder through the search, specify the browser directory. It is usually called Internet Explorer and is located in the Program Files directory (x86) on the system drive "C".
At the end of the standard uninstallation of the applicationfollowed by a deep scan (if activated). And after displaying the search results of the residual components, you will need to select all the elements, use the destruction point of the files and click on the cleanup button. As usual, the system is then desirable to reboot. Only in this case the browser will be removed completely and completely.
But do not rush to rejoice.If the system includes automatic updating, there is no guarantee that the browser will not be installed again, and the user, whether he wants it or not, will have to repeat the above-described actions again.
Here's another question and that in Windows 10 there are two browsers: both IE 11, and Edge. Therefore, if you need to get rid of them, you will have to perform the removal procedures for each of them.
