deleted shared files during software removal
« on: February 17, 2006, 02:35:09 PM »
in using the add/remove software feature on windows 98 I was prompted with several warnings about shared files that appeared to be no longer used by any application and asking if I wanted to delete them

of course I did and now I can't use ie, and i get several errors on start up.

any suggestions.

Go to a computer store see if you can get an IE disk or you may find some in an PC mag or on the disk that come with your computer, that has an IE on it( just try to install IE again )
Anyway if you cant use IE which application or computer are you using to contact us?

Download Mozilla Firefox.  I'm assuming you have access to another computer with Internet access.  Then install Mozilla Firefox on your computer.  It's better than IE anyway.

Thank you.

I already tried firefox bc I use it at work and because it is better than ie.

It didn't work but maybe I'll try it again.

also yes of course, i have internet access via other computer(s)

Thanks very much.

    My sugestion is: don't delete what you don't know! Other sugestion, try again firefox or opera. Doesn't work? What is the error message? Do you have to use a proxy? Some other non-ussual settings that you forgot to specify?
