Error message “This file must be present to allow the IExtractIcon interface to work” in the Content Browser.
Problem:
When you open up the AccuRender 4 Content Browser you do not see any library folder you only get the error message “This file must be present to allow the IExtractIcon interface to work”
The problem is caused by installing Internet Explorer 8, which breaks the Content Browser.
Solution:
We are still working on fixing this problem, so currently there is unfortunately not a fix for this. The problem only occurs with the AccuRender Content Browser. You can still apply materials and plants by using the Material and Plant Docking Windows or if you prefer to drag and drop Materials you can have an Windows Explorer window open with the Materials and just drag and drop them in to AccuRender from there.
As soon as we have a fix for this, we will post it here on this page.

Here is a link to the offical Microsoft instructions for unistalling Internet Explorer 8.
In general, uninstalling Internet Explorer 8 will roll you back to 7.
