Hi! I have recently had a problem and are still. I'm trying to get the destop IE original icon back after i had made a mistake and and clean it up with the destop clean up function. Does anyone know how i can get the icon back? Here are some of the things i tried 1. Reinstalling it using control panel=add/remove windows components. 2.System restoration. But no luck cause it ain't woking. 3.display properties=destop=costomized destop and check and uncheck IE. I'm currently using a shoutcut. But i'm despert for the icon to be back! Anyone have any idea where i can get the original icon back from the destop clean up function? THANK YOU!

Right click on desktop choose properties then desktop then customize desktop. Tick IE to appear on ur desktop

DID THAT 2!! Hey but wait i just install sp1 for IE and it's back but now the problem is i can't get the E icon back i only seeing a window in front of a folder. It looks like the icon programs have on the program menu. Help Any one. Can anyone tell me how to change it back?

Find the iexplore.exe file and right click and drag to the Desktop. Let go of the mouse button, tell it to create a short cut here. Larry

My main point is not to get the shout cut!! OK this problem happened when i first install "DameK UltraBlue" It's a theme for windows but then i uninstalled it and that's when the problem happened.

Alex, Go to the link below and under the letter "I" scroll down to "Icons - Replace with Old Style" and you'll find the registry edit to accomplish what you want. Replace IE Icon On Desktop HTH Tufenuf

Hi Alex; I don't know if this will help or not. Check to see if it's set to show in Internet Options. Go to Internet Options in the Control Panel. Click on the Advanced tab. Scroll down to the Browsing section. Make sure there is a check in the Show Internet Explorer on the desktop. Click Apply. Click OK. Good luck.
