Windows Xp cannot find Iexplorer.exe

Postby Wellander » Thu 14 Aug, 2003 11:06 pm

Hi,
Windows Xp cannot find Iexplorer.exe
What happen to Windows Xp home.
I went and browsed the internet explorer dircetory and there is no files or directories not even connection wizard in it.
No body deleted it.
Can somebody please help.
Can it be part of the Blaster Worm that I may got hit with or what?
I do not use netscape or mozilla in windows xp because I am too scared that windows will crash the way windows xp is.
It appeared to dissappreaed by it self.
If you post more questions for me please wait a while for a responce I will be on vacation.

Internet Explorer runs under IEXPLORE.EXE, not IEXPLORER.EXE.

To view the files you are after, go into your File and Folder options and allow to view hidden files and protected files, you will indeed see in C:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET EXPLORER\ that the files exsist.

Hi,
It does not exist.
There is nothing in that folder.

Well then I'd get your Windows XP media out and perform a 'repair installation'.

Hi,
I solved my problem I downloaded and Installed Netscape in that computer and I can not find the Restore disks at this time which is not good.
Thank you for that advice anyway.
