How to Uninstall IE8 Beta in Vista?
Posted by: Mr.Byte in Computers & Internet, Tips n tricksInternet Explorer 8 Beta 2 was just released today. So I tried to install the new IE 8 but it said that I have to uninstall the previous version of IE 8 Beta 1. Uninstalling Internet Explorer from Vista is a little bit tricky than other applications.
So, here is how to uninstall IE8 Beta 1 in Vista?
(Note: I was little impatient to verify this, but you can also update IE8 Beta 1 to Beta 2 through Windows Update)
Usually to remove an application from Vista, one can go to Control Panel and click Uninstall a Program under Programs. All the installed applications will be listed there and one can choose the program to be uninstalled and click Uninstall from the top.
But IE8 is not listed on the list of applications. To uninstall IE8, Click View installed updates from the left sidebar in that Control Panel. From the installed updates list find Windows Internet Explorer 8 and click Uninstall.

It may be required to restart the system before you can install IE8 Beta 2 and you may be asked to restart again before using Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2.
You can download IE8 Beta 2 here.
