    ok I enabled epm, does that mean im running 64 bit now on all opened tabs
    Yes it should Please confirm using Task Manager,
    Right click a blank spot on your Taskbar and click on Start Task Manager,
    Processes section,
    You should see the same items as my prior screen shots showed.

    Does this file exist?

    C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe

    If yes then you have 64 bit IE available.

    You should also have:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe

    That's the 32 bit (default) version.
    Yes they both exist. Heres a screen shot

    No that cant be correct. I am getting ads, I downloaded the 64bit edition of ad blocker ONLY. So If im seeing ads im on 32 bit. Something happened, theres gotta be a way to reload ie even if i gotta delete it and reinstall

    this is really annoying

    Seems the easiest way to restore a deleted system file is to use System restore to an earlier time/ Before you deleted the file,

    Who are "they"? Just curious, why are you intent to use IE 64 bit?

    Have you tried to run Windows Update manually?

    thegreattailz,
    If you have IE11, then IE11 64bit will start one parent process that is 64bit. That parent process will start 32 bit children that do the actual surfing.

    Once you turn on Enhanced Protected Mode (EPM), then that parent process will start 64bit children to do the surfing. There are some websites that need to load plug-ins. Some of those plug-ins are only written for 32bits. So the parent process attempts to load a 32bit child so that it can load a 32bit plug-in.

    It is quite possible to have one main 64bit process and some 64bit children and some 32bit children all at the same time.

    It is against the forum rules to discuss ad blocking... so I'll just say to uninstall that plug in and look for other (more efficient) ways to do what you want.

    Yes, you have circled the 64bit parent process.

    Yes, you have circled the 32bit children processes.

    Can you show a screenshot of the EPM setting?

    Wow posted this on the wrong thread/ oops
    Any way Lets go back and see if this produces any restore points before you deleted a file you actually need,
    Click the Start button and your User name listed near the top,

    Then use the Navigation pane on the left column to go to Computer and follow the arrows,
