Accessing the right Registry entry for Internet Explorer in C#
-
Hi, I am working on a small application that checks what browsers are installed on a system running Windows Xp... I was able to find the right entries to check whether Firefox and Chrome are installed or not... And after quite some amount of googling about IE, I found that IE might get corrupted due to some unforeseen reasons... So, is there a possibility of a windows system to have NO internet explorer installed? If yes, How can I check whether IE is present or not.. Please suggest... Thanks in Advance

IE is a part of Windows itself and you can safely assume its existence on Windows. I personally won't go bothering about an usecase where the IE installation is corrupt for some unforeseen reasons. It may be negligible.
