Reinstalling Internet Explorer or Outlook
Express
(Windows 98/Me/NT/2000/XP)
Sometimes, when a program just doesn't work right
anymore, you have to either uninstall it and reinstall it. But, before you go to
all the trouble of uninstalling software then reinstalling it, sometimes simply
reinstalling it can correct any program errors or problems that you may have
been experiencing. Reinstalling can replace missing or corrupted program files
and sometimes this is all you need to get a program running correctly again.
However, it's not so easy to reinstall Outlook
Express or Internet Explorer. Microsoft won't let you re-install Outlook Express
or Internet Explorer if you're currently running the most current version for
your operating system. And all of you, if you've kept up with your Windows
updates, should be running the most current version of Internet Explorer and
Outlook Express.
However, you can fool Microsoft's download site into
thinking you don't have Internet Explorer or Outlook Express installed. And,
that allows you to reinstall either or both programs. But, don't think Microsoft
doesn't know about this little trick. In fact, they do. Not only do they know
about it, they actually show you how to do it. Really!
The easiest way to reinstall
Outlook Express and/or Internet Explorer ( you have to reinstall Internet
Explorer to reinstall Outlook Express) is to fool Windows into thinking you
don't have them installed. To do this requires editing the registry. Be very
careful when doing this because you can cause harm to your computer if you don't
do it correctly. But if you follow these instructions carefully you'll do just
fine.
Click here and follow "Method 2" Once you have done that, you'll need to
reboot. When you start Windows again, you'll get a message notifying you that
Internet Explorer and Outlook Express have been "removed" (they really haven't)
and asking if you'd like to "clean up" your stored settings. Answer "No". Files
become missing or corrupted over time mostly due to installing and uninstalling
programs, improper maintenance, hard drive errors, and accidental deletion, to
name just a few. Always use Control Panel/Add-Remove Programs or a program
designed for uninstalling software to remove programs you no longer want.
Perform regular maintenance like
CHKDSK and Defrag to keep your hard drive in good shape. And, don't install
spyware programs which add popups or toolbars to your Outlook Express email
program.
