typingtroubles Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 Hi there, i have somehow managed to change a setting on my pc so that i cannot type anything into the toolbar on internet explorer it just says 'Application not found' i can however go into google by setting it as my default but when i try to click on certain links within a website it says the same error message. I cannot download anything so i have been unable to download Internet Explorer again, if anyone could help i would be most grateful :) Quote
danzil Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 ok. do you have an original xp cd to hand or can you obtain one...... you could try the cmd line repair but you WILL need your xp cd to hand go to start>run then type in (without the qoutes) rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 %windir%\Inf\ie.inf this will try a repair install of internet explorer using the ie inf stored when internet explorer is installed... give that a try first. post back so i know how oyu are getting on. regards danzil Quote Windows 10 Pro x64Aqua Jeantech Gaming case550watt psu.MSI Gaming Board32GB DDR3 Corsair gaming RamGenuine Intel i7 3.2Ghz4 x 24x dvdrw 150GB SSD750GB Hybrid Drive256 RAID PCI/E SSD for OSand loads of other bits i really dont need :D
