rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132
%windir%\Inf\ie.inf
I tried the above in RUN as you suggested but it comes up with the message
'The file IEXPLORE.EXE on Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 CD is
needed. Type the path where the file is located and then click OK.'
First of all I don't have a Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 CD, I
only have a XP Home Edition CD (no service packs) and a separate Service
Pack 2 CD. The SP2 CD doesn't have a file IEXPLORE>EXE on it.
