Downgrade from IE9 to IE8 on Windows 7

I'm sure this was already asked before and I know about "Turn Windows Features on/off" or uninstalling from Windows Upgrades screen. The issue is that we have an image and IE9 is preinstalled. So, when I uninstall IE9 Windows doesn't know how to return to IE8 and I'm stuck with no browser at all. I also couldn't find any IE8 installation for Windows 7, probably Microsoft didn't bother to create one.

Is there any way to get rid of IE9 and return to IE8 under those circumstances? I have Windows 7 SP1 installed with IE9?

Go into Program and Features> click View installed updates and find IE9 on the list. Uninstall it and Windows 7 will revert to IE8.

Why do you want to downgrade?

It is possible to run IE9 in IE8 mode.

Press F12 and in the right part of the menu select Browser Mode IE8. It's engine will act like of ie8 and all pages will load just like in original ie8.
