text: What do you mean your browser disappeared? Your IE shortcut just disappeared or did your entire browser program get deleted?  In order to check, you need to go to C:&#92;Program Files&#92;Internet Explorer and see if you can locate your Internet Explorer program because I do not think it is possible for your program to just get deleted. Click on IEXPLORE.exe and make sure your browser starts up correctly. You just need to create a shortcut for that IEXPLORE.exe and put it back on your desktop.
