that's how I did it. I did not encounter any problems.

Hi, I don’t know how to fix your problem but I never use the run to install from the web. I find that to many times I have run into problems doing it that way. Instead I download the installer and run it from my PC. Just a suggestion, You might try downloading the installer and run it from your pc. Of course you may get that familiar message that it is already installed and won’t do it but it might be worth a try.

From what I can tell, the process is easy with JAWS so long as you don’t encounter problems. However, I did, and I’m at a loss. The IE11 download link for Win7-64 bit systems is https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/Internet-Explorer-11-for-Windows-7-details.aspx In this case, I selected the “run” option, and the download went smoothly. However, as installation started, JAWS verbalized something to the effect that not all files had previously been installed. (the wording is important, but I neglected to take a note.) At the halfway point, the installation stopped and I was directed to a new trouble-shooting icon on my desktop. Clicking on this icon took me to an MS help page. Among other things, the page lists a series of files that must be installed before IE11. I went through the entire list. Most files were either already on my system or weren’t appropriate for it, according to the messages I received as I initiated each download. Everything else seemed in order on the trouble-shooting page except for one item that I don’t know how to look into. This is that the video card may be incompatible. I had IE11 on my system until Wednesday, when a tech support guy trying to fix a problem convinced me to roll back to IE10. So, on the face of it, my video card should be compatible. However, is it possible that it has become incompatible since IE11 was initially installed two or three years ago? If so, any ideas how I can fix it? Second question. The only file that wasn’t already on my system was not a prerequisite, but a recommended option. I installed it, then rebooted my PC (which, by the way, still didn’t solve the IE11 problem). This is the MS description on that trouble-shooting page: Download x64 package for the 64-bit version of Windows An update is available for the ASLR feature in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2 This update introduces the Force ASLR (Address Space Layout Randomization) feature. This is an addition to the ASLR feature for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. I have no idea what this feature is or does. Can anyone tell me? should I not have installed it? Sorry for such a long post and complicated query. But perhaps others on the list will be attempting to install IE11 before next Tuesday, and so any answers may help more than one of us.
