- Uninstall IE6 Update
- Posted by Keith Young on January 13th, 2004
Have been having many problems with installing the Internet Explorer update
on Windows ME. I have tried reinstalling as well as using all three of Jim
Byrd's 3 recommendations to fix (found in previous postings in this group).
I also tried the fix according the the MS Knowledge Base article concerning
"Error Message: Windows Could Not Upgrade the File %1 from %2 %1: %2" since
I was also initially having this problem (I do not have a WININIT.INI file
on my computer). No luck with any of these
I think that enogh of time has been taken trying to fix this problem. I
would like to just uninstall IE6 and reinstall IE5 since I never had any
problems with IE5. But, apparently MS has not provided a way to do this on
WINME. I saw the KB article outlining how to do it on Windows XP but that
does not help me. In addition the "Add/Remove Programs" does not provide a
way
Can anyone tell me how to uninstall IE6 on WINME? Everything on my computer
seems to be running fine except IE6 and Outlook Express. I have downloaded
the IE5 setup files but it will not allow me to install it over IE6.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Keith

I should also mention that I did find Microsoft Knowledge Base Article -
293907 and tried the suggestions here without success (the "restore to
Previous Config ..." option was not available and the "repair tool " did not
work.
Would it be best to reformat my hard drive and reinstall WINME??

Keith,
You can use IE Radicator to remove IE

Make sure you have downloaded the IE5 setup files first, but not loaded.
Backup your Favorites folder.
