I just installed Internet Explorer 9, and I don't like anything about it, and I have no idea how to get Internet Explorer 7 back. Also, it deleted all of my bookmarks when I installed it. Is there a way to get those back? Help! D:

You really should stick it out. Sticking with IE7 means you missed 8. The transition between 8 and 9 would have been smoother for you.



IE7 isn't going to be around forever. Eventually you're going to get a new computer and you won't be able to install IE7. When that happens you'll be forced to learn how to use IE9 or whatever version is out by then. If you've kept up then it won't be a big deal. With each version that passes more things change. If you step up gradually then it'll be easy for you. But if you stick your head in the sand and refuse to change the gulf will widen and you'll be left behind.



While everyone else connects to the Grid using IE: Neural Net Edition, you'll be the granny kids point and laugh at for still using IE7 and browsing the few remaining site on the old text based Internet. A sad and lonely future...



There's still hope.



You can change your life for the better. Here and now make a pledge to always upgrade to the latest version of IE. Your future self will thank you.



Also, you should be able to go to Programs and Features to remove it. Again, I implore you to reconsider.

Internet explorer is a major part of the operating system. all sorts of process use it (including windows update). so it is a major change to the system that cannot be undone. however, you can get a better browser such as google chrome or mozilla firefox. Both of these are faster and more secure than internet explorer. as for your bookmarks... if they got deleted they might be in the recycle bin, but if they are not then they're lost sorry :(
