I have downloaded the 'full' installer for IE11 (IE11-Windows6.1-x64-en-us.exe).
The page here lists prerequisties that are required to install IE11: https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/kb/2847882
I have installed all of the updates on this page that are applicable to WES7. When I run the installer, it tries to do some stuff, then comes up saying
Internet Explorer needs an update before installing. Go online and install the required update, then return to the Internet Explorer installation page and run setup again.
When I click the Get Update
button, surprise surprise, it directs me to the previous page I linked! The one with the list of updates I've already installed!
How can I install IE11 on WES7?
Edit:
Even in IE11_main.log file, it says it is trying to download 3 update packages that are already installed.
The actual log details:

In an elevated command prompt type WMIC QFE LIST FULL and hit enter, be sure those hotfixes are in the generated list. – Moab – 2016-04-18T15:16:58.573
Unfortunately that returns
No Instance(s) Available.
I may not have some required package in WES7 that allows this to enumerate update packages or something. The updates are listed inPrograms and Features
Windows Update list. – pay – 2016-04-18T15:27:02.680They can show up in the programs list but not be installed properly, I would try to reinstall all of them just to check they installed properly. – Moab – 2016-04-18T15:47:19.333
Ok I'll try that, for now I've edited in the actual log information. – pay – 2016-04-18T15:49:04.907
Actually, that particular update it's failing on
KB2670838_amd64.CAB
isn't actually an applicable update for WES7... – pay – 2016-04-18T15:53:29.790Yes but IE11 needs it, there is the problem... – Moab – 2016-04-18T17:19:06.697
Right but that's an M$ problem. That package is meant for a full install of Windows 7, not an Embedded version, so the installer is clearly not correctly identifying which packages are suitable for the OS its running on. I've asked on M$ forums as well to see what they say – pay – 2016-04-18T17:48:09.407
