Hello,



Welcome to Microsoft Community. I appreciate your efforts towards resolving the issue. I will certainly help you with the issue that you are facing.

Method 1:

First, I would suggest you to run the following Microsoft Fixit to get the problem automatically detected and fixed.

Method 2: Run Internet Explorer in no add-ons mode.



While browser add-ons can enhance your online experience, they can occasionally interfere or conflict with other software on your computer. Try starting Internet Explorer without add-ons to see if the problem goes away.



Step 1:
Run Internet Explorer without add-ons.

• 
  Press Windows + R on the desktop screen.
  
• 
  Type iexplore –extoff and click on OK.
  

If the problem does not occur after you use this method, use Manage Add-ons to determine which add-ons are causing the problem.



Step 2: Manage add-ons.

• 
  Open Internet Explorer by clicking the
  Start button. In the search box, type Internet Explorer, and then in the list of results, click
  Internet Explorer.
  
• 
  Click the Tools button, and then click
  Manage Add-ons.
  
• 
  Click an add-on in the Name list, and then click
  Disable.
  
• 
  Repeat step 3 until you identify the add-on that is causing the problem.

Manage add-ons in Internet Explorer 11



Check whether the problem is fixed.



Method 3:

If Microsoft fixit and disabling add-ons does not help, I would suggest you to Reset Internet Explorer and check if that solves the problem.



Follow the steps in the link below to
Reset Internet Explorer and check.

Change or reset Internet Explorer settings



Note: Resetting Internet Explorer's settings is not reversible. After a reset, all previous settings are lost and cannot be recovered. It is recommended to back up your home page or home page settings before resetting
Internet Explorer to defaults.
