Hi, I deleted internet explorer from my windows 8.1 pro pc thinking I wouldn't need it any more... Then suddenly my school changes their remote login software and I need internet explorer to access. I really need to get internet explorer back someway and the microsoft website says that I already have it. Please help me. Im desperate.

B.T.W: No other browsers will support this remote login.

You still have IE, You cant uninstall it, But you can disable it.

It should be in programs and functions(I think)

I deleted all of the program files and stuff, there are no remains of it anywhere.

The explorer is based around internet explorer, You cant uninstall internet explorer, Only disable it.

If you were to completely delete it you wouldnt be able to start windows properly.

This is the only official download i can find, It is for win7 But it should work for win8.1.
