[Britton30]

Lets try this. Go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and Features, left pane and click the Turn Windows Features on or Off. and follow the steps below. After clicking OK it will "think" for a bit.

I tried that and ran update and it didnt pick anything up except malicious software removal tool. I wanna try and avoid doing a restore if I can cuz i installed alot of things after (fresh install) and didnt realize something was wrong. I wonder if I just delete the ie regestries and the ie folders if it willlet me install. I cant reinstall it cuz its telling me i have the current version and t doesnt allow me to repair it. windows is retarded

See post #20,
Restoring the Previous version is your best option,
Cheers.

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?

Could I bother you for a screenshot of the EPM setting?

 

[Britton30]

Removing the checkmark as shown should revert you back to what ever you previously had, I've done it and it worked but is was with IE7 and IE8, IE8 was crappy.

Otherwise Open Internet explorer and click on Gear symbol and Internet options,
Once on the Internet options page,
Go to the Advanced tab or section,
Scroll down the list nearly to the bottom and Enhanced protection mode is listed,
I don't know of any other settings page where it's listed other than this one,
See if it's Checked or Unchecked.
You have to click on Apply and Okay before leaving the Internet options page,
Any changes do not take effect unless you close All Browser windows.
Then re-open Internet explorer.

Here too. Internet Explorer Enhanced Protected Mode - Turn On or Off

If you can stand to watch the two videos that ThrashZone linked to, you will see how Process Explorer shows the parent process and the indented children. Sadly, those two videos don't actually show checking the option for EPM. Those steps are in the tutorial a few posts up.

Okay I've been trying to get you to use Restore Previous version on the Internet explorer Programs folder for a while now,
No personal files are effected only the Internet explorer folder will be/ hopefully to restore the file you deleted,
Go back to the previous post with the screen shot on it. page #2 post #20.

I do not see anything wrong with the OP's installation of IE11. It appears to be functioning as it should.

There is a 64bit parent and 32bit children. If the OP wants to use an inefficient 64bit plug-in, then the OP needs 64bit children via EPM (but even then - the plug-in might not work).

 

[ThrashZone]

She earlier reported she delete iexplore.exe from her program folder which is the 64 bit folder so with no exe in there it's not operating,
There is a separate exe in programs x86 which manages the 32 bit processes but that's all it does,
Once you switch to epm the other exe file takes over/ so it seems but I can't figure out any other reason for epm not functioning as my prior task manager images showed on I believe page 1 post 6.

In post #1, thegreattailz states that a pinned shortcut was deleted.
This statement from post #1...
Now when I type EXPLORER 64 nothing comes up.
...does not mean that an exe file has been deleted. This just means that thegreattailz did not know that Microsoft changed the shortcuts to IE starting with IE10.

Here is what users would see when making that shortcut search:




And here are the properties of the IE9-64bit shortcut:



Once IE10 or IE11 is installed on the computer, searching for EXPLORER 64 will no longer return any shortcuts for Internet Explorer. While this might be a confusing change, it is normal. Once IE10 or IE11 is installed on the computer, the default start menu shortcut for IE will start the 64bit version of IE. If you force W7 to start the 32bit version, that version will start the 64bit version and then will exit RAM.

~~~

~~~

Once IE10 or IE11 is installed on the computer, that statement is no longer true. The 64bit IE exe manages the 32bit IE processes when EPM is off. That same 64bit IE exe manages the 32bit and 64bit IE processes when EPM is on.

~~~
....I can't figure out any other reason for epm not functioning [for the OP] as my prior task manager images showed on I believe page 1 post 6.

Possible reason 1) a 32bit plug-in is forcing the 64bit parent to always launch 32bit children
Possible reason 2) the OP does not have EPM enabled as claimed in post #9
(Hence my request for a screenshot.)

Thats the file I deleted! I think I understand whats going on... That was the old IE version, and when I upgraded to IE11 no one conveniently told me that file isnt included in the new IE. But that doesn't explain why the 64 bit process is still spawning 32 bit children.

@thegreattailz,
Have you restarted this computer since you enabled EPM?
What antivirus app are you using? Norton...?

Im not using av, and yes ive restarted it

 

[UsernameIssues]

In one of your posts, you shows a screenshot of Task Manager. That screenshot shows LiveUpdate.exe running. Do you know what app this is from?

 

[UsernameIssues]

Also, if User Access Control is disabled, you will have 32bit tabs - even with EPM enabled. There is a work around, but I would not suggest it.
