 * Frozen Internet Explorer or multiples of **

To get rid of a freeze or to many open you need to use the CMD command Got to :- Start > Search box: Type in the box without the quotes:- “CMD” then click Enter Multiple iexplore.exe

You will then have a display of a black box with a chevron pointing to the right and a pulsing underscore. That is your Command Prompt.



Here is where you are going to “kill the task” (the task being Internet Explorer) This is achieved by typing without the quotes after the chevron “**taskkill /F /IM iexplore.exe /T”** Then click **Enter**.

by taking this action all the Internet Explorer instances have been closed, thereby removing them from your task manager.

If this problem occurs frequently you can make a Desktop shortcut

Start by right-clicking anywhere on an empty part of the desktop. Highlight **New**, and then click on **Shortcut**.



Next, in the box that pops up, type without the quotes the following command “**taskkill /F /IM iexplore.exe /T”**

After you click on Next, you will be asked to name your shortcut. What about “ KILL INTERNET EXPLORER”, just to be different.



If you want an icon for your shortcut then right click on the shortcut you just made, and left-click on **Properties**. This box will pop up; click on **Change Icon**.



Now scroll through the icon box until you find one that you want to use.



**OK**.

Now when Internet Explorer starts freezing up, or there are just too many instances of it running in the background, click on your new desktop shortcut and kill them all at once!
