How to Remove An Internet Explorer Skin

Software skins change the look and "feel" of an application without changing the way in which it works. Much like the color on a car or the design of a table, skins are a way to customize your experience without changing anything fundamental. Internet Explorer is one of many applications that allows you to change their "skin."

Instructions

1. Uninstall any toolbars or Internet Explorer add-ons that were installed to provide the ability to use skins. Open Internet Explorer and select the "Tools" menu.

2. Select "Internet Options" and click on the "Programs" tab.

3. Click on "Manage Add-Ons" and disable or delete the theme or skin manger add-on.

4. Navigate to "Settings>Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs" to totally uninstall any theme or skin add-ons.

5. Select the program and click "Remove" to uninstall.
