Fix Internet Explorer when It Keeps Closing Pages
Do you hate when you're working on something in Internet Explorer, but all of a sudden the browser closes down? This article will tell you how to fix this problem.
Steps
- Realize that it's not the browser that is the problem, but it is that your firewall may very well be the cause.
- Go to your firewall program, and ask to allow the program to run. Many different procedures exist, so check the Help pages in your program for details.
- Clear your Internet Explorer browser history. Sometimes too many items in history may cause the program to unexpectedly close.
- Disable some add-ons that you may have recently installed.
- Clear your Internet Explorer cache.
- Run an antivirus AND antimalware scan in several software pieces you should have on your computer.
- Start Windows Update, search and install all applicable updates that your browser needs. It may take a while, but this process is definitely necessary to keep it from closing down unexpectedly.
- Reset your Internet Explorer browser itself, as a LAST RESORT ONLY.
