Unable to installed ie 11 in windows 10

Somehow my IE11 got replaced with Microsoft edge and I tried many ways to get the IE back, but not succeeded.

I tried resetting internet option setting but its not showing the internet explorer settings at all

I have downloaded the latest browser from official website and when I tried to install it its just says

Restart confirmation

but when I restart nothing will be done at all, also I checked the IE folder its just empty.

Please help me fix this


Solution 1:

IE is dead, and Microsoft will make great efforts to ensure it's not used any more.

But you don't need to download and install Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 10 because it's already installed. You should be able to type Internet Explorer in the Start menu and select it from the list of results. Or you may directly run iexplore.exe.

If you have disabled Internet Explorer, you may re-enable it in Settings > Apps > Optional features > Internet Explorer 11.

To repair Internet Explorer, run inetcpl.cpl, select the Advanced tab and click "Reset" under "Reset Internet Explorer".

It's unknown how long Microsoft will let you continue to use Internet Explorer before blocking it completely. It's my best recommendation to get used to Microsoft Edge or its sibling Chrome.

Note that you can use Microsoft Edge in Internet Explorer compatibility mode.

You enable it from the three-dots menu, Settings, Default browser, and set "Allow sites to be reloaded in Internet Explorer Mode", finally restart Edge.

To use it on an open website, click the three-dots menu, More tools, and click "Reload in Internet Explorer mode".
