I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall internet explorer. To uninstall do this go to desktop mode(on keyboard press windows key) and click on start i.e windows logo, a list of programs will be displayed at the bottom you will find a search box now type Programs and Features in the search box, and then click View installed updates in the left pane, Under Uninstall an update, scroll down to the Microsoft Windows section, Right-click Windows Internet Explorer, click Uninstall, and then, when prompted, click Yes. Restart now.
