    >>Why is silver light not showing up in add ons but it is installed. IE ver 11 windows ver 10

    When we installed SilverLight, we can see all add-ons through the following way.

    IE -> Tools -> Manage Add-ons, you will see the following screenshot.

    You said you didn't see the silverlight showing up in add ons. I suggest you can try methods to check whether your Silverlight is installed currently.

    1: Open a Silverlight Demo page to verify that there is no problem with your Silverlight installation

    The Silverlight Demo page URL:
    https://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/new-controls/demo/

    2: If your Silverlight is not installed properly, try to clean a corrupted Silverlight installation and then reinstall Silverlight (Download the latest Silverlight plugin and Restart the computer).

    How to clean a corrupted Silverlight installation and then reinstall Silverlight:
