I've got IE8 installing unattended, but every time I open it up for the first time, I have to run through the IE8 settings choices..the ones for comptability updates, search provider choice, etc.

Does anyone know of a way that I can apply these automatically?

Thanks

Very good question,

I'm also searching a solution for that. I think that can be done with an IE-Unattended Kit from Microsoft, but I don't know the exact name of it.

Would be nice if anyone can give a tutorial.

If you just want to turn off the first time setup use this:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"IE8RunOncePerInstallCompleted"=dword:00000001
"IE8RunOnceCompletionTime"=hex:d0,9d,25,be,e1,16,ca,01

If you want all the settings set, I did a regshot to see what changes it made after I ran through the wizard and got this(these are my settings on my computer at my times. some values may vary!):

I recommend downloading Regshot(click the Загрузить button), going into IE options, advanced, reset settings so that the wizard runs again and see the settings it applies for you.

-X-: the thing about those settings is, they'll only work for the current user. Not newly created users.

Personally, I only use IE as a Firefox downloader, so no idea (and at work, I force IE settings using group policy)

If you mean they wont work during guirunonce or whatever method they use, just add them via HKCU runonce.

I don't use IE much either. I just use it to double check windows updates after manually applying updates.

That's not what I said. I said that once they create a new user on that box, those new users will still have to go through all this. Settings chosen via IEAK (last I checked at least) will also work for new users.

As for updates, I've stopped using IE for that a couple years ago too (Vista & Win 7 don't use IE for that anymore).

Like Geej and maxXPsoft said, switch off first run customisation and you can apply all your preferences to the default user.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
