    Opening Downloads in Internet Explorer


    Hello,


    I purchased an e-book and I was trying to download and open it and while doing that I accidentally selected open in Internet Explorer. I was to change back to my default download opening settings but I can't figure out how to. I don't want internet explorer and I don't want to reset my browser.

    Thank you.

    :)

    [IE6] Internet Explorer Cannot Download / [SITE]

    Hi guys,

    I'm having a problem with my Internet Explorer 6.

    In any website I try to access, I get this

    Internet Explorer cannot download / SITE
    Internet Explorere was not able to open this internet site.

    There's a downloading file right behind it. I'm just trying to access a site, but it shows that. Why is it? Is there a way to cure this error?

    Internet Explorer won't open

    Hi,

    • If you cannot start Internet Explorer, you can open the settings window by pressing Windows Key + R, typing "inetcpl.cpl" in the Run box, and then pressing Enter. After the
      window is open, follow the steps that are described in the "How to reset Internet Explorer settings" section.
    If above steps failed to solve.

    • Try to create new user account and then open IE.

    Or

    • Try clean installation method to reset your system.
