What do you do if you uninstalled 'the internet'?

[Noah]

My friend and I were on our computers and he was uninstalling things because his web browser was messed up. He searched in the start menu "Internet" and a file popped up as he says called "The Internet" he thought this was internet explorer. Now all of his icon are the internet explorer icons and he cant open any of them because when he does it, it pulls up internet (which doesnt have a homepage) with a .lnk error. We've tried everything from restarting the computer, going into the bios, and going into safe mode. Also we tried to restore the computer in safe mode it came up saying, "What would you like to do with systemrestore.lnk?"

He is running i5 processor, quad core, Asus sabertooth z70 motherboard.

One cannot uninstall "the internet". You can uninstall an internet "Explorer or browser" like Google Chrome, FireFox, Internet Explorer, ect.

But I guess if you did somehow manage to do that, then you wouldn't be able to post this question.

Then you wouldn't be asking this question on the net!

If you uninstalled, you go into connection wizard etc...
Perhaps easiest is save all data and do complete system restore.

open cmd.exe with administrative privileges

type (with the space) sfc /scannow and hit enter (system file checker will check your system files

whilst doing that - go to control panel - programs - make sure you have a browser installed (internet explorer/google chrome/firefox etc)
then hit back button and select default programs
set your default programs... is your browser listed? if not then hit back again and select set your file type associations - scroll down to html and select your browser

if this is not your issue

click start - type rstrui.exe and click it
