Internet Explorer opens, flashes then closes immediately once you start it.

  1. IE 8 Opens for a blink of an eye then closes

We have tried uninstalling it, reinstalling, using Revo Uninstaller to completely remove any traces left behind, running in compatibility mode, and trying an equivalent thing in IE 7.

  1. Internet Explorer 11 flashes open then closes

Hi we are running IE 11 Version 11.1358.14393.0CO (update versions 11.0.43) on windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 64bit Version 1607 (OS build 14393.1358) on a server 2012r2 domain.

We have a weird issue where internet explorer will run the primary time a user logs in, but if they sign off and log back in, internet explorer flashes open then closes.

  1. Internet Explorer 11 – Closing on launch. Leaves iexplore.exe process running.

I have a weird issue with a couple of user’s machines (6 out of 120) IE11 opens but closes almost instantly. one among the iexplore.exe processes stays running even after the window has closed/crashed out. 

We are running Windows 7 Pro (x64). All domain-joined and fully patched (via WinUpdate)

This iexplore.exe process can’t be stopped (via Task Manager or forced via CMD). It also prevents the machine from responding to shutdown or restart commands. the sole thanks to close up the machine once IE11 is run is to hard Reset (ie. Hold down the facility button or pull the plug).

Interestingly, the iexplore.exe properties box up Task Manager shows the method location as:

>> C:\Windows\winsxs\wow64_microsoft-windows-i..etexplorer-optional_31bf3856ad364e35_11.2.9600.18738_none_8542ae0bf74c22ed

My initial thought was that it had been a broken Windows Update or something (since the lingering process is within the WinSXS folder).

We have Sophos Intercept X installed alongside Symantec Endpoint Protection 14 with no alerts from either being raised, and full scans have found nothing untoward.

When I uninstall Sophos (and leave SEP14 installed), IE works fine. An equivalent also applies if I uninstall Symantec Endpoint Protection 14 and leave Intercept X installed. This issue only seems to seem when BOTH AVs are installed.

  1. Internet Explorer informing it’s not closed during iMacros installation.
