Thinking about Going back to Win8.1


If want to disable IE, still can. However, can't uninstall it like were able to in XP/98/whatever.
Here's how, although I find it useful in case Chrome or Firefox stops working and have to re-download it. *Wink
1. Search for turn windows features on or off and click it in the search results.

• 
  

2. When the app opens, uncheck Internet Explorer 11.

• 
  
  

3. Click Yes on the warning dialog.

• 
  

4. Click OK.

• 
  

5. Restart for the changes to finish.
