How to remove Internet Explorer?

Can someone please tell me how to remove IE from my mac?
I'm obviously new to the mac and don't know how to remove an entire program.
Thanks.

  • How to remove Internet Explorer Maintenance with Windows 8

    In order to edit group policy preferences for Internet Explorer 10 and newer, we are editing group policy exclusively with GPMC installed on a Windows 8 computer. I have the understanding that once you edit group policy with a newer OS, it shouldn't be edited
    with an OS prior.  Now we are ready to remove policy settings using Internet Explorer Maintenance by clicking "Reset Browser Settings" for that policy node.  However, IEM is not visible with Windows 8.  Is it safe to go against best
    practice and edit group policy with for example GPMC installed on a Windows 2003 server just to remove IEM policy?  Is there a better way to accomplish this task?
    Thank you

    The DLLs for IEM are removed when a computer is upgraded to IE10/IE11 (or if it ships with IE10/IE11).
    This means that you can't remove the IEM settings from a GPO, unless you have a machine that has an older (IE9 or less) browser.
    You can either;
    a) delete the GPOs which you already know do contain IEM settings (here's a tip on how to find those:
    http://deployhappiness.com/tracking-down-rouge-cses-ie-maintenance-addition/ )
    b) use a computer which has an older browser, with GPMC/RSAT on it, to do the "IEM Reset".
    I would not use WS2003 for this, since WS2003 doesn't understand ADMX, and you might have already used a newer OS to author settings into that same GPO. I would use WS2008R2 or Win7 to do this (ensuring that the browser on that computer is IE8 or IE9 and is
    not IE10 nor IE11)

  • Can I remove internet explorer 8, after installing Foxfire

    I just installed Foxfire. I like it very much and want to keep it as my permanate browser. My question is can I remove Internet Explorer 8.
    Thanks
    Walter Spain

    No. I am not sure that IE can be totally removed from Windows XP. As I recall, it is interwoven into the XP operating system. Removing IE8 in ''Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs'' will simply back up to the previous IE version until you end up at IE6 (full of security issues). If that is the case, it is best keep IE8 on your system. If you ever need to do '''''manual updates''''' for Windows, you will need IE to do so.
    You can change your default browser to be Firefox:

  • How to stop Internet Explorer upgrade to IE 10 & IE 11

    Dear All,
    How to stop Internet Explorer upgrade to IE 10 & IE 11 
    In our environment we have around 300 workstations.I need to stop all of the machine users from manually downloading and installing IE.Also how do it stop the IE from updating using Group policy on windows server 2008 & windows server 2003.
    All users machine are on windows 7.
    Basically i want all users to get restricted to IE9.
    Thanks ..
    Mike...
    Regards, Mike ||Persistent Work Triumphs||

    Hi Mike,
    >>Basically i want all users to get restricted to IE9.
    Internet Explorer 10 will be available as an “Important” update through the Automatic Update feature of Windows Update. Users of Windows 7 Service Pack 1, who have opted to
    download and install updates automatically through Windows Update (recommended setting), will automatically be upgraded to Internet Explorer 10.
    However, we can prevent users from upgrading to IE 10 via Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) or System Center 2012 Configuration Manager.
    Regarding how to prevent users from upgrading to IE10 or IE11, the following two articles can be referred to for more information.

    how to install internet explorer 8 in windows 8 pc.

    Hi,
    Internet Explorer 8 is not compatible to install in Windows 8/8.1 PC.
    As Rob suggested, we could use Internet Explorer 10 (In Windows 8) or Internet Explorer 11 (In Windows 8.1) developer tools to emulate IE8,
    Using the F12 developer tools; Or build a Virtual Machine.
    Besides, here is the download page:

  • How to download internet explorer

    Does anyone know how to download internet explorer ?

    Probably because there's a ton of website that require IE to run properly.
    That said, unfortunately all you can do is run Windows in a VM environment like Parallels or VMWare Fusion to get your IE fix on.  Sorry.

  • How to close Internet Explorer and other programs running on Windows?

    In order for Flash Player to be installed or updated, any programs that use Flash Player must be closed.  This includes Internet Explorer or other browsers, instant messengers, Skype, etc.
    These programs may be running in the background, not as visible windows, but need to be closed anyway.
    To close such programs use the Windows Task Manager.  To start Task Manager, take any of the following actions:
    Press CTRL+ALT+DELETE, and then click Task Manager.
    Press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC.
    Right-click an empty area of the taskbar, and then click Task Manager.
    Once the Task Manager is running, select the Processes tab.  On older Windows version you may need to click on the Process Name or Image Name header to sort the process names.
    Now right-click on every process that the Flash Player installer needs to close (e.g. iexplore.exe), then select End Process.
    It would be desirable if the Flash Player installer could perform that action by itself; I have therefore created an enhancement request.  If you were affected by this problem, please head over to the Bugbase and vote for this request: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3548136

    I am a new Mac user and have just encountered a third part software that does not appear to be supported through Safari; thus I am receiving the following message when I attemt to log onto the system:
    "Our system currently supports the following browser versions: Internet Explorer 9, Internet Explorer 8, and Firefox 4 through Firefox 7. We have detected that you are using an unsupported browser. While you still may be able to use the system, depending on the browser, it is possible that you may run into technical issues that we cannot support.

    Bypassing this message only yields a Server Runtime error.
    Why don't you just download Firefox, 4 through 7 are supported, or if you insist on using Internet Explorer, use Windows.

    Do you want to install IE on a Bootcamp/Windows or OSX? OSX does not have IE anymore. The last IE was v4.0 for native OSX.

  • Since installing Firefox as my default browser, and removing Internet Explorer 9,which was awful, my Homepage screen is just in the middle of my screen with very small print and empty space on each side of it. Can the be fixed?

    Three days ago I installed Internet Explorer 9 as my browser. When I tried to sign in to my email on my homepage I couldn't.
    I contacted my service provider and they said that Explorer 9 was not compatible with them as it is in Beta form and also in test mode.
    They suggested that I remove Explorer 9 and install Firefox, which I did. Then they said it was a good idea to have more than one browser at a time and to go into the Microsoft site and download Explorer 8.
    I tried this and it would not let me go back to Explorer 8 only forward to 9 which I reinstalled.
    After all of this my Homepage only fills up the middle of my screen and I have empty space on either side of the picture. When I browse, the site I go to opens up to full page, but the print is much smaller than before.
    I don't know what I installed to make my viewing so much smaller or my homepage to shrink.
    Also do I really need 2 browsers or can I just go with Firefox?
    If so, how will not having Internet Explorer affect my browsing?
    Firefox is set as my default browser and I am enjoying using it, I just wish I had my Homepage back to full screen!

    When going to a website the picture was small - tried changing the Zoom size , tried Zoom Reset - the text did change size but the layout distorts - found under View - Zoom - Zoom Text Only was checked --- Removed this check mark and the website returned to normal size and Zoom worked normally again. I am 99.9999% sure I did NOT check this myself and there is no one else on the computer to cause it. Maybe this will help.

  • How to use Internet Explorer 11 64 bits rather than the 32 bit version, on Windows 7 familial premium 64 bit

    Hi,
    my system : up to date computer, W7 familial premium (64 bit), Internet Explorer 11 (32 bit)
    I use this computer on the web to visit just one website, always the same and several hours a day ; this site advocate the use of Internet Explorer 64 bits for more efficiency.
    How can I get to install, or switch to the 64 bit version of Internet Explorer, as presently when I try to install a downloaded version, I get as an answer something like "installation not possible because the more up to date version of Internet Explorer
    is already installed on your computer". Thanks

    Hi,
    On a 64-bit version of Windows, please click system drive, there should be a “Program Files” and “program Files x86”,
     the "Program Files" folder is for 64-bit programs and the "Program Files (x86)" folder is for 32-bit programs, you will find IE11 64 bit has already installed in you system in “Program Files”>”Internet explorer”.
