Iexplore.exe
Internet Explorer
Description
Internet Explorer is the Microsoft web browser used to access the Internet. It is responsible for the display and navigation of web pages, handling a various related media content, and interaction with the user. With later versions it also helps to protect against site spoofing and common attack vectors.
Iexplore.exe is a 32/64-bit executable for a graphics UI style application.
The WinSxS directory holds Windows Side-by-Side DLLs. WinSxS allows multiple versions of the same DLL (code libraries) to exist on the same system. This ensures that every application will get the DLL version they were tested and designed for. The result is improved application and system stability. See details for full directory location.
There are no known security risks in using Iexplore.exe assuming it has not been modified or replaced by virus or malware and it resides in the default directory. This file is installed as part of the Windows operating system.
