| 1129273 | 2010-08-18 19:38:00 | I have IE 8 for 64 bit and IE8 for 32 bit both installed on my comp. How do I go about removing the 64 bit version? Or how do I make the 32 bit one the default. There is no "make default" option with either of them. The 64 bit is the default. The 32 bit was installed after the 64. As a matter of fact it was installed by windows without asking me. Something would not open in 64 bit so windows just installed the 32 bit as well. Seems to me I have no need for the 64 and it is an annoyance having to switch between them |

| 1129274 | 2010-08-18 20:22:00 | You have two (2) versions of Internet Explorer 8 (IE8), IE8 64-bit and IE8 32-bit. IE8 64-bit is the default. IE64-bit is a "level 2" browser; Flash and ActiveX Controls are only supported in "level 1" browsers (e.g., IE 32-bit). The executable for IE8 32-bit is located here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe The executable for IE8 64-bit is located here: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe Browse to the 32bit Program Files folder and create a shortcut to that version of iexplore.exe Then just use that one. |
