Detection Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Visually they didn't change anything, but the performance is vastly superior. I wouldn't notice, I don't use it enough, only ever gets opened to test a site if I think FF is playing up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted March 3, 2013 Author Subscriber² Share Posted March 3, 2013 I have found through various methods that the reason that IE 10 will not install is that I am using 3rd. Party themes. This problem seems to only effect Win 7 x64 machines. Since my shell.32 is modified as well as other .dlls in SysWOW64. IE 10 will not install or work. If I remove all of this it will. The problem is that if I re install the 3rd party themes, IE 10 will break again. Many users are affected by this and Microsoft should fix this issue. Just an FYI.

Buendia Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I think that .dll patchers which enable 3rd party themes should fix the issue, not MS since they do not support any kind of patching of .dll files. +Matthew S. 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IE 9 works perfectly fine with the patches. I don't really care if they fix it or not now. I just wanted to see what it is like. My intent was never to use IE 10. I do not even use IE 9. I have now removed it from my machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some parts / patches that go along with IE10 bring DX11.1 features to Win 7 too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detection Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I have all of the required patches to get IE 10. I do no Online Gaming. Sorry, I didn't mean for you to get IE10, just that it also brings new features to Win 7, with you saying you weren't going to bother with it any more I was wondering if you would miss DX11.1 features It affects single player gaming too (Affect or Effect... I can never remember that one :p ) +Gary7 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Tom Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I couldn't start IE10 in Win7 64bit either. After searching for days I found the solution in some forum on the net: try to remove all search providers from IE options. After that, my IE10 worked like a charm.

+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted March 4, 2013 Author Subscriber² Share Posted March 4, 2013 Also just remembered about this utility http://www.tweaking....all_in_one.html It automates a tone of fixes. It can registered/unregister all of the IE critical files (in addition to doing a lot more). I just ran this and it worked great. I was able to instal IE 10. The problem was with the 7tsp Hud Evolution Icon pack. With that removed it works, Thanks everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xpablo Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I also have same issue on my business notebook, it has nothing as far as mods or custom windows files,basically I have W7 x64 and MS Office 2013 and Quickbooks, and Firefox installed, I just received it back from RMA a couple of months ago and of course it came back with the windows re-installed it had W7 home premium but I upgraded it to Windows 7 pro, all legal not pirated. doesn't matter I use Firefox as main browser anyhow. will wait for MS to release a hotfix.

+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted March 4, 2013 Author Subscriber² Share Posted March 4, 2013 I am a diehard Firefox user but IE 10 is twice as fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted March 4, 2013 Author Subscriber² Share Posted March 4, 2013 Well IE 10 worked great for about 45 minutes. Very fast but then my screen started to go black and I ended up with a BSOD. I re imaged and I am officially washing my hands with IE 10. MS can keep it along with Windows 8.

spaceelf Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 All I could add is I helped someone on another forum get IE10 installed correctly, apparently Norton Internet Security 2013 was causing problems with it. I don't know if security software is definitively the case in similar situations but people having issues should consider it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
