How to revert back to IE6 after IE7 install?

ADVERTISEMENTS

Internet Explorer 7 cool and easy as compared to Internet Explorer 6. But is some cases IE7 gives more errors than ease of use, which tends us to switch back to previous sable good old friend IE6.

As any wise man would say, before you do anything backup your important data. Also, make sure you have access to download or already downloaded copy of Internet explorer 6. Also it is a good idea to make a restore point using system restore.

– Go to Start/All Programs/Accessories/System Tools/System Restore
– Make sure that ‘Create a restore point’ is selected, then press Next
– Type in a name, for instance “Before IE7 Removal.” Then click Create
– Click Close to complete
