provider setting for Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer has reset this setting to your original search provider, Bin (www.bing.com). Internet Explorer will now open Search Settings, where you can change this setting or install more search providers. Unfortunately, the solution wasn't as simple as IE's reset or choosing a new search provider and making it the default. Even upgrading Internet Explorer 8 to version 9 still resulted in the same message. Fortunately, the solution was able to be found on a Microsoft Answers thread. The trick is to delete a cache file that IE uses for the search history that must have become corrupted or at least no longer lined up with IE's actual settings. Step 1: Close Internet Explorer. Step 2: Browse to C:UsersUserAppDataRoamingMicrosoftProtect Step 3: Hit the Alt key to reveal the menu bar and go to Tools, Folder Options. Step 4: Choose to show hidden files and uncheck to Hide protected system files under the View tab. Step 5: Delete the CREDHIST file. Step 6: Reset step 4 back to how it was. You can now launch Internet Explorer and ensure that the error message does not appear. The CREDHIST file is recreated if it is missing the next time Internet Explorer is running. It just isn't corrupted from the previous junk the next time. Share this:FacebookTwitterRedditGoogleEmailPrint Related Filed Under: Tech SolutionsFollow Us Subscribe to 404TS articles by email.

Support Guy, we highly recommend that you visit our Guide for New Members. Solved: Internet Explorer - Search Provider Default Discussion in 'All Other Software' started by nampeej, Sep 18, 2009. Thread Status: Not open for further replies. Advertisement nampeej Thread Starter Joined: Sep 18, 2009 Messages: 3 Whenever we go to IE, the above error message shows up, and in the error box is: A program on your computer has corrupted your default search provider setting for Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer has reset this setting to your original search provider, Bing (www.bing.com). Internet Explorer will now open Search Settings, where you can change this setting or install more search providers. I click OK and it takes me to the "Manage Search Providers". I've tried different things - adding a different search provider, enable, disable, set as default - nothing changes, I continue to get the same error message the next time I open IE. The error message says "A program on your computer has corrupted..." What program could that be, and what can I do to correct the situation? We have Windows XP. nampeej, Sep 18, 2009 #1 Phantom010 Trusted Advisor Joined: Mar 9, 2009 Messages: 34,572 Do you have IE6 by any chance?
