lokelo Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 When opening IE7 for the first time i am taken to a page that makes me choose a default search provider.I've already chose one with registry additions in the cmdlines.txtHow can you force internet explorer to take settings from registry additions done during cmdlines.txt?I'm setting up machines in an environment that does not have internet, but does use internet explorer for intranet.I've tried setting the following values under the key[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]"RunOnceHasShown"=dword:00000001"RunOnceComplete"=dword:00000001as i've seen elsewhere but it does not appear that this setting is sticking after i log in for the first time.If i reapply the above registry changes then i'm no longer confronted with the settings page.if it helps, the link that you are directed to is: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=69157.Any thoughts would be appreciated. This is getting frustrating, and very time consuming to test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatbox99 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Try replacing HKEY_CURRENT_USER with HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT in your build process, this will replicate the key to all new profiles as they are created. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lokelo Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 I'll try that and let you know. Now just got to wait 2 hours for windows to reinstall in the VM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
