/support.microsoft.com/ Page Saved as .mht Won't Open in IE7

[otter_totem]

I too am having this *new* problem that never used to exist. I am running

Vista Ultimate, with IE8. Based on thread messages I just uninstalled

Microsoft Live Essentials, but no help. Looks like I'll uninstall IE8 or

switch to a better browser.



This is so annoying, since mht is the default which I cannot change and must

select complete webpage each and every time I save. Thanks MSFT.

As I mentioned in your other Me too! post KB articles are a problem case for

me but with a simple workaround. I don't think the OP followed up on my

offer to look at a copy of his problem page but I will make the same offer

to you if you also have one which is only a problem because it is an old

saved .mht file. But again, instead of E-mailing me it would be better if

you could post a link to your problem file so others could try to help you

too.



BTW the poster you are replying to was not the OP. ; )
