Have wifi but no internet explorer

IE won’t connect to internet, but Chrome is working fine. Other software wont connect to internet either.

Question

I just bought this laptop about 10 days ago to use specifically for a writing project separate from my other work laptop. It has Windows 7. It had Google Chrome installed (or maybe my brother installed it upon taking it out of the box.) I have used IE as my browser on this laptop once or twice, but mostly use Google Chrome. I downloaded some genealogy software I just bought today about an hour or so ago (Family Tree Maker 2012) and noticed that it would not connect to the internet to register- it kept saying «No internet connection». After trying a few things (allowing the program access through Windows Firewall, checking to make sure that «proxy server» tab was not checked in Internet Settings, disabling some Bing Maps and Windows Live email accelerators) and finally tried closing Chrome and opening IE to run in background instead. However, IE won’t connect — keeps saying «Cant display webpage» although I am definitely connected to internet via wifi. I tried resetting Internet Explorer. no dice. I’ve restarted several times. Nothing is working. Any suggestions? My husband thinks i should uninstall Chrome, which he guesses is causing all the trouble with both IE and the Family Tree software. But I’m afraid that if I uninstall Chrome and it doesnt work, i wont be able to get back on the internet since I can presently only do so through Chrome. I dont have a whole lot of experience troubleshooting computers, so please be specific! Thanks so much!

Answers

Uninstalling Chrome should not be nessesary it does have an agressive default install which should not be used but uninstalling will not fix any issues because chromes uninstall will not change setting back the way they were before you installed it/ or who ever. Reset ie9 manually, Click the Start button on the Taskbar, Click on Control panel, Click on Internet options, Go to the Advanced section, Click on Reset button on the bottom, Check the box to Delete personal settings, Use the recommended setup and install options.

Нет подключения к Интернету, если Internet Explorer не запущен один раз

Устаревшее и не поддерживаемое классическое приложение Internet Explorer 11 было окончательно отключено с помощью обновления Microsoft Edge в некоторых версиях Windows 10. Дополнительные сведения см. в статье Часто задаваемые вопросы о прекращении использования классических приложений Internet Explorer 11.

В этой статье описывается проблема, из-за которой вы не сможете подключиться к Интернету, если Internet Explorer не был запущен хотя бы один раз в текущем сеансе Windows.

Применимо к: Internet Explorer 11
Исходный номер базы знаний: 3173620

Симптомы

Вы получаете несколько сообщений об ошибках, указывающих на то, что у вас нет подключения к Интернету. Например, при запуске программы Office вам будет предложено выполнить проверку подлинности. Вы заметили, что проблема устранена при запуске Internet Explorer и убедитесь, что параметры прокси-сервера верны в свойствах браузера.

Причина

Эта проблема возникает из-за того, что многие службы используют WinHTTP для доступа к Интернету и должны использовать WinHttpGetIEProxyConfigForCurrentUser API для получения параметров прокси-сервера, определенных в Internet Explorer и используемых WinINet. Этот API завершается ошибкой, DefaultConnectionSettings если значение реестра не существует в следующем подразделе реестра:

Если значение не существует, internet Explorer автоматически создает его через WinINet при первом запуске браузера в сеансе Windows.

Дополнительная информация

Чтобы полностью проанализировать первопричину этой проблемы, необходимо понять, почему метод установки операционной системы использует конфигурацию DefaultConnectionSettings , в которой значение реестра не существует. Этого не ожидается, так как все готовые установки операционной системы (OOB) настроены для правильного создания этого раздела реестра.

В зависимости от первопричины может потребоваться выполнить различные действия. Мы не предоставляем общих рекомендаций по определению или устранению первопричины. Однако эту проблему можно обойти, написав небольшую программу, которая использует API WinINet InternetSetOption для создания DefaultConnectionSettings значения реестра, если значение не существует. Вы можете основывать программу на следующих сведениях:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
«AutoDetect»=1
«AutoConfigURL»=»URL»
«ProxyEnable»=1
«ProxyServer»=»Proxy:Port»
«ProxyOverride»=»List»

Этот метод подробно описан в следующей статье:
