"IE 7.0 Unattended Install Utility has stopped working" error:
To resolve the error, go to the "ieUnatt.exe" file in the ?C:/Windows/System32? folder, and then right click on that file (named "ieUnatt.exe") and then left click on "Run as administrator." Restart your computer and retry to reset Internet Explorer by left clicking on "Reset" button on the "Advanced" tab in Internet Options in the Control Panel.
