This one is on PowerShell, not on Command Prompt:
Get-WindowsPackage -Online | Where PackageName -like *InternetExplorer* | Remove-WindowsPackage -Online -NoRestart

If you wanna run the whole script from the Prompt, just add
"powershell.exe -Command" before the command. Example:
powershell.exe -Command "Get-WindowsPackage -Online | Where PackageName -like *InternetExplorer* | Remove-WindowsPackage -Online -NoRestart"
