Unable to uninstall ie11

I've got IE11 installed and behaves perfectly normally, however it's not in the list of Installed Updates. Running the installer returns the error that I already have a newer version installed, and Windows Update is constantly nagging me to install IE11, which is already installed, so it fails!

Now I can't even find IE 11 to uninstall and I did look under "view installed updates" - and by the date and it's hidden. This is making me crazy. I can't run some of my software on IE Can anyone help me? I tried running that command line prompt from above and it said it couldn't find the file. But, I can assure you, the file is there, somewhere, because it is running IE Any help would be massively appreciated.

I just read your post - Nick Borneman - and I might have to completely refresh this machine AGAIN it's just been done a month or two ago for a failing hard drive.
