I have W7 and all the necessary updates and everytime I install IE10 IE is no longer visible in any app list or start menu? If I type iexplore at run window on the start menu it states something along the lines of "tried to run application at incorrect memory address"
Basically IE 10 is not there. It's like it just got rid of IE 9 but left it on disk. When I search for IE I find what looks like the old code in the usual C:\programs\internet explorer folder (nothing looks new). I windows features and it states IE10 is installed and the installation didn't throw up any errors.
I'd love to use IE10 but just can't. I live in Australia and notice when I go to windows.com it takes me to the US site to install (just mentioning this in case it is relevant).
A few extra pieces of information for you. When I first tried to install IE10 it stated "a newer version of IE is already installed". This is probably when I had the same problem installing the pre-release version even though I uninstalled it last time and was happily running IE9!? So I turned it off in windows features and started a new install yesterday. Please find below the errors in ie10_main.log.
Thanks for any help in advance.
