I developed solution for 9C59 error on installation of IE10 and IE11

I got around the 9C59 error on Internet Explorer 10, Internet Explorer 11 installation problem that many have had since the release of Internet Explorer 10 including myself.

When I had tried to do the command line uninstall of IE9 as well as the normal uninstallation I was getting errors that it couldn't uninstall the updates for IE9 because of a corrupted store.

Doing the normal shut down Windows Update/renaming/deleting of the Download folder contents of the Software Distribution folder to get rid of corruption did not resolve the problem.

That is when I first attempted to start uninstalling the IE9 updates individually and it worked, I now have IE11 installed.


This solution works for me <big smile>

I uninstalled all of these updates that were for IE9
from Control Panel/ Programs and Features/ View Installed Updates

Each one requires a restart.

KB9822861 Says it can't find this one, but that's what it said it was in the 'About Internet Explorer'

Tried to uninstall IE9 and it wouldn't let me again.

Checked for updates, installed all updates checked, restarted.

Checked for updates, IE11 installed fine this time.

I had been having the 9C59 error since IE10 was released.

I had tried every option I could find to resolve the problem and none of them worked.

<my solution works, smile>
