"Your popular sites" Not populating

Hi Guys,

I'm using Windows 7 64bits Ultimate edition. My IE9 started giving me issue 2 days ago. T

The "Your popular sites" in IE9 lost all the sites
I tried restting it to default settings and did a reset > same issue

I have to add that nothing was installed nor any add-on

Can someone help me ?

Thanks!!

Hello,

Is it just you who accesses your PC? Have you cleaned the history or anything like that?

Hi Dave,

I am the only one who have access to the PC
I didn't clear the history, but I noticed not long ago, that history is not populating either, But I didn't care much about....

Try this first:

Try reinstalling Internet Explorer by going to Control Panel - Programs and features - Turn Windows features on or off, and deselecting IE. Restart. Go back to Turn Windows features on or off and enable it again. Restart - Is it back?

You could then try opening Internet Options. Click the Advanced Tab and select Reset.

If none of the above helps try reading the microsoft article below or an SFC Scan

That's exactly what I have here. I don't see my sites there anymore and I don't feel like re-installing IE9

I'm asking for help on this forum to find an alternative

If you do not want to try troubleshooting using the steps suggested I suggest you try a third party browser like Chrome, Safari or Opera (I know Safari supports this feature).

I appreciate your help and time, but I have already tried the first and and third option before. I thought there would be another solution than re-installing IE9

In all cases, what would be the best way to re-install it without loosing any data (Such as the addresss drop menu, usernames and passwords....) ?
