Internet Explorer 11 prerequisite packages
- Create a temporary folder that is named Temp at the root of drive C, and make sure that at least 500 megabytes (MB) of disk space are available.
- By using KB 2847882 as a reference, download the individual packages for the appropriate Windows CPU platform (x64 or x86) on which Internet Explorer 11 will be deployed. Save these packages to the temporary directory that you created in step 1.
- In the Temp folder, create a new folder that is named
Cabfiles
. - At an administrative command prompt, change to the C:Temp folder.
- Extract the contents of each prerequisite .msu package to the
Cabfiles
folder by using the following syntax:
Note
The following command-line example would be used to extract the x64 version of the Internet Explorer 11 prerequisite updates. (To process the x86 version of the component, replace the x64 (.msu) package name with the x86 (.msu) package name.)
Repeat these steps to extract all the prerequisites for Internet Explorer 11, and save the .cab files in the
C:TempCabfiles
folder.Internet Explorer 11 core installation package
- Download the core Internet Explorer 11 installation packages that are needed for the target Windows platform, and save the packages to the C:Temp folder.
- At an administrative command prompt, change to the C:Temp folder.
- Extract the contents of the core Internet Explorer 11 packages to the
Cabfiles
folder by using the following syntax:
Note
The following command-line example would be used to extract an x64 version of the Internet Explorer 11 core installation package. (To process the x86 version of the component, replace the x64 package name with the x86 package name.)
IE-Win7.cab is the name of the .cab file that is extracted from the Internet Explorer 11 setup file (IE11-Windows6.1-x64-en-us.exe). It is saved in the
C:TempCabfiles
folder.Internet Explorer 11 language packs
Note
Before you install the Internet Explorer 11 language packs, you must install the operating system language pack for the corresponding Internet Explorer 11 language. You can download and install this through Windows Updates or manually.
For Example, to install French Language pack for Internet Explorer 11, we must have French OS language pack already installed on the computer. For more information, see Language packs for Windows.
- Download the Internet Explorer 11 language pack packages, and save them to the C:temp folder.
- At an administrative command prompt, change to the C:Temp folder.
- Extract the contents of the Internet Explorer 11 language pack packages to the
Cabfiles
folder by using the following syntax:
Note
The name of the downloaded language pack for Internet Explorer 11 is IE11-Windows6.1-LanguagePack-x64-af-za.msu.
Output .cab file: 'Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64.cab.'
Output .cab file: 'Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64.cab.'
All the extracted language pack files will be have the same name (for example, Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64.cab). Therefore, you must make sure that you rename the .cab files so that they are not overwritten if you are extracting more than one language pack to the same location.
For example, rename the extracted .cab files as follows:
Language pack | Old name | New name |
---|---|---|
Language pack 1 | Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64.cab | Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64-Af-za.cab |
Language pack 2 | Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64.cab | Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64-fr-fr.cab |
: From 'Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64.cab' to 'Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64-Af-za.cab'
: From 'Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64.cab' to 'Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64-fr-fr.cab'
: From 'Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64.cab' to 'Windows6.1-KB2841134-X64-fr-fr.cab'
The following command-line example would be used for extracting an x64 version of the Afrikaans language pack. (To process the x86 version of the component, replace the x64 package name with the x86 package name.)
Internet Explorer 11 spelling dictionaries
- Download the Internet Explorer 11 Spelling Dictionary packages, and save them to the C:Temp folder.
- At an administrative command prompt, change to the C:Temp folder.
- Extract the contents of the Spelling Dictionary packages to the
Cabfiles
folder by using the following syntax:
Note
The following command-line example would be used to extract the x64 or x86 version of the Spelling Dictionaries package.
Internet Explorer 11 cumulative security update
- Download the latest Internet Explorer 11 Cumulative Security Update (CSU) packages, and save them to the C:Temp folder.
- At an administrative command prompt, change to the C:Temp folder.
- Extract the contents of the Internet Explorer 11 Cumulative Security Update packages to the
Cabfiles
folder by using the following syntax:
Note
The following command-line example would be used to extract the x64 version of Internet Explorer 11 Cumulative Security Updates. (To process the x86 version of the component, replace the x64 package name with the x86 package name.)
Complete the package
After you follow all the previous steps, you can use the
C:TempCabfiles
folder as the source for the installation of the Internet Explorer 11 prerequisites, the Internet Explorer 11 core installation files, the language packs, the spelling dictionaries, and the latest cumulative security update. You can then use a batch file to start the installation of each component in sequence.Copy the following sample script to Notepad, and customize it based on the package requirements. Package requirements include the following:
- Internet Explorer (x86 or x64) core installation package
- Language package
- Spelling Dictionary package
- Cumulative security updates
Then, save the script file as SampleScript.bat in the
C:TempCabfiles
folder so that it has access to all the files in that folder.For Example:
C:TempCabfilesSampleScript.bat
As soon as you customize and save the script file, you should double-click Samplescript.bat to execute it. A command prompt window displays the commands that are being executed by the script. The output resembles the following:
This script will install all the extracted .cab files without a prompt to restart. These files include prerequisites for Internet Explorer 11, the Internet Explorer 11 setup file, the Internet Explorer 11 language pack, the Internet Explorer 11 spelling package, and the Internet Explorer 11 cumulative security update.
As soon as the Samplescript.bat file installs all the cab files, restart the computer manually.
Sample script to install the x64 version of the .cab files
Note
The syntax in the following script remains basically the same for installing x86 (32-bit) Internet Explorer 11. The only change that is required is to replace all x64bit cab file names with x86 cab file names.
Important
This is a sample script file that is provided as a demonstration to achieve the scenario that was discussed earlier. We provide no warranties or support for this script file. You should thoroughly test the script file before you try it in production environments.

Installing a localized version of Internet Explorer 11
You can install Internet Explorer 11 in your localized environment by using either the English version of the installer or a supported language version of the installer for your localized environment.
