David-

Typically it is an IE update (e.g. a SP or other large update) that modifies
that file. It is possible that MS changed something in later versions of IE
that no longer support that registry value and did not bother to put in a
new one.

Subject: [gptalk] Empty Temporary Internet Files Folder

 

Hi guys,

 

   Earlier this year there was a brief thread about a custom ADM for
emptying the "temporary internet files folder when browser is closed" reg
setting.  I'm trying to understand why I have one XP machine with that
setting available [ within INETRES.ADM ] and one without.

 

Date of INETRES.ADM which HAS the setting is 10/3/2006

Date of INETRES.ADM which does NOT have the setting is 9/19/2008

 

   For the one dated  9/19/2008  I had applied SP3 today in hopes that the
updated file would have the setting in it, but it didn't.  For what it's
worth, the machine with the setting is an SP2 office workstation where I
have all sorts of tools installed (suptools, GPMC, reskit, etc...), while
the one without it is simply an SP3 home machine (prof edition) where I want
to use that setting.

 

   I understand I can just take the registry route for this or use custom
ADM as per the thread back in February, but I'm curious -- What am I failing
to understand when it comes to the versions of this INETRES  adm template??
Do some tools update it?  I'm thinking maybe the 2003 server support tools?

 

Thanks for your patience!

-DaveC
