Re: XP SP3 and IE6, IE7 and IE8 (Beta) - Important Information

The way I understood it, if you running IE7 (and applied sp3) an attempt repair will work fine because IE7 can't be removed and therefore pre SP3 IE6 file can't be restored

This only affects people who wish to replace, for whatever reason, IE6 with IE7

Cudni,

That is not clear at all that your case will prove true. If so I will write it up.

But it was decidedly not the case for XP SP2. You ended up with a non-working mix of IE versions because the reversion was not done prior to the in-place upgrade. In the XP SP2 case the reversion to IE6 files were perfectly accessible, just not used. It is exactly that scenario that I discuss above:

the theory of course is one, while practice a lot of time, is another thing. Thank you for testing it for sure.

Sounds like the safest bet is to stick with Windows 95 just kidding
