Quick overview:
If you are still using the old Internet Explorer 4.0, it may happen that a small error creeps in over time. This causes you to be unable to open a new Internet Explorer window when you click on Open link in new window.
Fixing the problem is very simple:
1. Click here to download a small file.
2. Double-click on it and confirm twice with OK. It is advisable to start the computer now - from now on you can fully use Internet Explorer again.
NOTE FOR NEW PUBLICATION: This article was produced by Sandro Villinger and comes from the Windows Tweaks archive, which has been built up since the late 1990s.
Founded Windows Tweaks as a teenager in the 90s. His helpful PC tricks made it Germany's most visited Windows site (at the time Sandro looked like this). He then went on to write elsewhere, for example for PC-Praxis, Computer Bild and PCWorld in the USA. Microsoft also poached him from us. Now Sandro is back, finally sharing his tweaks here again. For a stress-free digital everyday life. You can reach Sandro via e-mail.
