Solved Ie9 & w7 + sp1.

[StokesleyLad]

I installed IE9 beta some months ago, basically to examine the new features. However I still prefer to use FF4 beta12 (at present) and IE9 lives on my Task Bar in reserve to be used on a particular site that will not accept FF.
I've just noticed it's vanished off the face of the earth. Search failed to locate it and I've checked Programs & Features and it's not there. I certainly haven't uninstalled it. I'm just wondering if installing SP1 had anything to do with it??
No big deal really - I'll just download & install it again when required.
I ask out of interest to see if anyone else has the same problem.
Thank you.

Later I attempted to download IE9RC - only to be told I already had later version installed on my PC. Search produced nothing. I then went into Program Folders and found IE 9.0.808. 16413 and created a Shortcut from the exe. file. So all is restored. However why it disappeared in the first place remains a mystery.
