trix Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 (edited) didn't see this posted anywhere else so i though i'd post.. it's quite cool no need to mess up my IE6 anymore :) Extract IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe to a temporary folder. Working within' the extracted directory, delete the following: update\ install.ins spmsg.dll spuninst.exe spupdsvc.exe Create a blank text file within' the directory and rename it to iexplore.exe.local. Move the directory to a location in which you want to store the now standalone version of Internet Explorer 7 Beta 1 (eg. My Documents). Execute iexplore.exe. source edit: edited out the source, noticed it had WPA bypasses and stuff, don't wanto get neowin into trouble Edited July 31, 2005 by Trix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiftof Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 this has already been posted on neowin. And yes it is possible with earlier versions of IE. Although when you do that with IE7 you should check help -> about. It displays the IE6 about dialog, so I think it still uses the IE6 rendering engine within the IE7 application...

kingofqueens Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 What does "Standalone" mean? I want to keep my IE6 and install IE7Beta paralell (i.e. to have both browsers running). Can I use this trick for that or is there any other solution? :( Thanks: King of Queens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
