Downgrade from IE8 to IE7

[jasonrey]

---

i hope someone can help me about this

naa koy IE8 karon. i wanna downgrade back to IE7 kay naa koy application nga dili mu run sa IE8. problem is, i can't uninstall IE8 para ma install nako balik ang IE7.

mao ni ang isulti kung i-diretso nako run ang IE7 installer:


mao diay ni akong system properties:


i searched around, ingon sila nga i-uninstall nako ang service pack 3 nako. when i looked at add/remove programs, walay "uninstall" both for IE8 and SP3.


anyone knows how to go about this without resorting to reformat? i really need to use IE7. answers will be appreciated.

thanks!

try to restore it to the date before you upgrade to IE8...check restore option in control panel

[jasonrey]

if i do system restore, mawagtang pud akong current installed applications if wala pa sila at that time? wala pako kasulay ug system restore gud. and i would prefer nga ang IE8 lang ang mabalik to IE7

Brad basta if na install na nimo ang service pack 3 kay dili na gyud na nimo ma downgrade imo internet explorer. You really need to reinstall your O.S.

Use the hidden $NtServicePackUninstall$ folder
1. Click Start, click Run, type c:\windows\$NtServicePackUninstall$\spuninst\spuni nst.exe in the Open box, and then click OK.
2. When the Windows XP Service Pack 3 Removal Wizard starts, click Next.
3. Follow the instructions on the screen to remove Windows XP SP3.

Then ma uninstall na nako ang IE8. currently reinstalling SP3 BEFORE installing IE7/8
