sirtex Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 So I don't bloat the original thread with too much OT chat:Ref: http://www.wincert.n...ha/page__st__85Can you explain how to integrate IE9?IE9 is an.exe file. W7 Toolkit sees .msu files, but it does not see IE9 with.exe files. Therefore, cannot add IE9 in update section?http://hotfix.chris1...t.Explorer.9.0/I will also add this link to the 'Download' tab. EDIT: Done.Will this hotfix remove all traces of IE8 when installing IE9, so I don't bloat my tiny SSD drive, or should I do that manually, or should I put in a tool request??Thanks for your time!

sirtex Posted August 15, 2011 Author Share Posted August 15, 2011 I have tried dism but it does not delete anythingThanks for the first hand experience!I'm guessing an MS official tool would not; IE has been married to the OS... but somehow for Euro customers they made an exception? Might have to find the DLLs/files/reg entries by hand...A quick google link brings me this tip: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/150801-remove-ie8-from-windows-7-x64-sp1/run this command twice from an command prompt (cmd.exe) with adminrights:FORFILES /P %WINDIR%\servicing\Packages /M Microsoft-Windows-InternetExplorer-*8.*.mum /c "cmd /c echo Uninstalling package @fname && start /w pkgmgr /up:@fname /norestart"this should remove the IE8 files with the help of the command line.But I guess you knew about this one . Have any luck with it? I guess a registery cleaner after installing IE9 might be needed if there are issues.Also, it seems Revo Uninstaller does a good job, & perhaps Comodo. I don't think I want to install a big program just to get rid of another big program my 1st approach.Any more advice?cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
