Is there a way I can uninstall IE7 from Vista? I am unable to view flash pages on IE7. But I can on Firefox. I keep trying to install Flash player into IE but it doesn't work. So I wanted to uninstall it, so I can start all over. But I have no clue on how to get it off of Vista. I appreciate any help you can provide.

It is a Windows component. In XP, open "Add or Remove Programs" then select "Add/Remove Windows Component". Uncheck and apply.

I forget how to do it in Vista since it is a little different. However, the process is nearly identical.

You can't remove IE7 as it's an integral part of Vista.

It will not uninstall in the components - Belive me I tried

EDIT: You can remove it during installation using Nlite but thats it.

doesn't that only remove the desktop/startmenu icons in XP?

Oh? Isn't this why MS got several monoloply lawsuits? I thought for the EU, MS had to make IE removable from the OS? If so, it is possible....

So i'm screwed with IE7 then? Or do you guys know how I can get the Flash Player to work with it?

Why not just ignore IE7 and use Firefox or some other browser of your choosing that doesn't have a problem with Flash Player?

If that's what it comes down to, I'll do it. But I'd rather have the choice to do so, instead of being forced to use another browser.

well, I didnt say it was impossible to remove but the method mentioned only removes the shortcuts. If theres another built-in way to remove IE, by all means fill me in. (there are several 3rd party tools I know of that do the job, aka not made by microsoft)

If you do uninstall it good luck with anything with activeX, like windows update........
