Wanna download all of Internet Explorer 5.5 SP1?

[DosFreak 2]

Go here and download IE5SETUP.EXE

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/download/ie55sp1.htm

 

Now make a batch file with these lines in it and save it:

 

ie5setup /c:"ie5wzd.exe /d /s:""#E"""

 

Run this batch file in the same directory as IE5Setup.exe

Very cool, DosFreak. Do you mean make the command in the .bat file exactly like the line above (no substituting)?

Thanks for the tip.

I always download all the files for an update and burn them to CD-RW so I am sure I never need to download them again.

Nice tip thanks bro. How the hell did you figure that out?

Ahhh, the raw beauty of a command line

DosFreak deserves his name.

It's in the iereadme.txt among others.

 

I guess it's unusual for someone to read files called "readme."

Unlike downloading IE 5.5 with this same command, this will only download IE 5.5 SP 1 for your current operating system. So far, I haven't been able to find a way to combine different OS downloads into one product.

Is there a similar way to download only IE 5.1 SP2, or is it no longer available for download.
