seskanda Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 (edited) Hello Anyone know a way to get a specific version of Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 7? The problem for me is the one on Microsoft's site 11.0.20 refuses to work with an ActiveX plug-in I use. I tried with a clean install and no other add-ons, and it still gives me "an add-on for this website failed to run." But, on another PC with IE 11.0.18 it installs fine. How to find IE 11.0.1 to 11.0.19 instead? Thanks in advance Edited February 7, 2017 by seskanda
seskanda Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 Not sure why nobody responded to this thread. But, does anyone know which files must be copied over from the PC that has IE 11.0.18 to the one with IE 11.0.20? I'm thinking if I replace them it will turn IE 11.0.20 into 11.0.18, right?
abbodi1406 Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) There might been a standalone installer, but i could not find anyone kept its links version RTM:https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/18520 version 11.0.11:http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=43898 version 11.0.15: x64http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/7/D/77DEA30E-F617-4088-9352-FDBFED2987EE/IE11-Windows6.1-KB2841134-x64.cab x86http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/7/D/77DEA30E-F617-4088-9352-FDBFED2987EE/IE11-Windows6.1-KB2841134-x86.cab version 11.0.17: x64http://download.microsoft.com/download/5/C/7/5C7074F0-CE81-4612-902F-DAAF3061B959/IE11-Windows6.1-KB2841134-x64.cab KB3038314 (update version 11.0.18)http://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB3038314+Internet+Explorer+11+for+Windows+7 Edited February 9, 2017 by abbodi1406

seskanda Posted February 10, 2017 Author Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) Appreciate the links, abbodi1406. The first one is 11.0.20 as I already tried that. The last one is an .msu file which will not work without IE 11.0.17 or below installed first AFAIK. As for the .cab files, have not tried them yet, but can probably use the files inside to replace 11.0.20. I'm still not sure where to put all the files anyways. 5 hours ago, vinifera said: just the folder itself Which Internet Explorer folder? The one in Program Files(x86) or Program Files? Yes, i'm using Windows 7 x64 so IE is x64 also. Are you sure no need to replace files or folders elsewhere, i.e. in /Windows/System32? Edited February 10, 2017 by seskanda
vinifera Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 (edited) both as some tabs will run in *32 mode system32 is no longer tied to IE as it used to with vista and xp but OS itself does use IE folders (since OS still uses its elements) Edited February 12, 2017 by vinifera
seskanda Posted February 13, 2017 Author Posted February 13, 2017 Good to know IE no longer needs anything from system32. I will be trying this out soon, and hope it works out Thanks in advance
vinifera Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 but OS needs some IE components you can see which ones are protected if you go delete them manually
