Disable Internet explorer app using GPO

Hi,
I'm just starting to customize our GPOs for Windows 8.1 as we are starting roll out soon. Regarding that i've been trying to get rid of the app version of IE11 and give the users no choice but to use the desktop version, because of compatibility etc.
I have not found a GPO setting or reg key to do this. Can it be done via GPO?

Hi,
@Kate
To quote my previous post: "...confirming GPO settings were applied using gpresult -v and also made changes in local gpedit.msc just to make sure..."
@Svekke
I can confirm that not only does gpresult show GPO being applied, but alos by starting IE11 desktop, going to settings, programs i can see the option being greyed out and that "Always in internet Explorer on the desktop" is chosen.
@all
After going through this again (had 2 cups of coffee first) i had one of those "facePalm experiences" when i noticed the second suggested GPO setting from Svekke2k14 about "Open internet explorer tiles on the desktop". This did the trick
The wording and explanation of this GPO setting was a bit awkward to say the least. I expected this to do the opposite of what it actually does, i.e. open the tiles version from the desktop... Doh! Ah well... ;-)
Thanks to both for the assistance.

Internet Explorer app and place of the addresses and tools bars

Hi
I noticed that, when I run the Internet Explorer app on Windows 8.1 Update, the addresses and tools bars are placed in the bottom of the IE screen.
It is possible to place them at the top of this screen? If so, how do I do it?
Thanks

Yes, as I know, we're unable to change the location of the address bar of Modern IE.

OK. I hope that, with Windows
8.2, the location of the bars in Modern
IE can be moved.
A curiosity: Using the mouse in Modern IE,
how do I quickly return to my home page?
Thanks

You can't open the application "Internet Explorer.app" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.

Why are you using IE?
If some site is requiring IE, set your user agent string to claim your using IE.
What is my user agent?

Disabling Internet Explorer

I'm not able to find anything in regards to disabling Internet Explorer 10 on a 2008r2 standard server running remote desktop services.
I figured it would be as simple as stripping the defaults and denying access through the control panel option, but apparently it's a little more complication than that.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

OneDrive won't disable on Windows 10 using GPO

I can't seem to get OneDrive to disable on Windows 10 using GPO on a Server 2012 R2 DC. I have Enabled the setting Computer --> Policies --> Admin. Templates --> Windows Components --> OneDrive --> Prevent the usage of OneDrive for file storage.
Doing it locally on that machine works, but it won't pick it up from GPO. I have another GPO in the same OU to disable Windows Store, and that one works as advertised. I don't see any errors in the event log.
I fired up an 8.1 machine and OneDrive is blocked properly there.
I guess I'm curious if it's just me, or if this is a common thing with Windows 10.
Thanks!

Open Internet Explorer URL using MII Transaction

Hello All,
I wanted to know if there is a way to open internet explorer URL using MII transaction. I know how to do it using irpt but was wondering if there is a way of doing it using MII transaction action blocks. I was planning to provide access to provide path for iexplorer.exe and then open url like "http://www.google.com" on it.
I appreciate your help with it.
Thanks,
Kiran

Hi Kiran,
You want to load a page into a transaction? for this you can use the action block called HTML_Loader and link www.google.com with HTML_Loader_0.SourceUrl.

INTERNET EXPLORER APP STOPPED WORKING

IE app under windows 8.1 will not accept or locate any http address. Can use Google Chrome ok so connection is working. Gmail app works OK.

Hi tommy1941, welcome to the HP Forums. When IE stops working, there are a lot of troubleshooting steps available. Luckily you can still use the internet with other browsers, so one of these 2 Microsoft troubleshooting documents should help:

Cannot disable internet connection and use wlan co...

hi i have download skype and i cant use it with my wlan connection because its already connected with internet and i might get charge for using this service could you please tell me how to disable internet and use wlan connection when i am in home
my handset details are
its made in hungary software version is v 11.0.0.029 software date 11-08-10 rm612
and there is no update availabe for my handset at the moment

It sounds like you are using an unsupported App like "Jailbreak" which technically voids the warranty on your iPhone. Your call on that.
If so, the app creates an "ad hoc" wireless network which the Airport Express cannot join or participate in. So, you cannot use both the AirPort Express and the "modem" function of your iPhone at the same time.
You should be able to turn the app off and log off the internet, and then setup another separate wireless network to run AirTunes, or AirPlay. But, you'll have to "switch" wireless networks to be able to do this and the network will of course not have access to the Internet.

Applet failed to load in Internet Explorer when using JRE 1.5 update 5

I have downloaded JRE 1.5 Update 5 and checked the relevant checkbox in Internet Explorer Advanced tab to use JRE 1.5 for applets. Did the same in Java Control Panel. However none of the applets seem to load.
For example I went to this site:
http://java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml
The applet didn't load and I got the following error in my Sun Java Console :
load: class JavaVersionDisplayApplet.class not found.

And it's the same behaviour in JRE 1.5 update 8 as well.

Cannot download a file with internet explorer 6 using SSL connection

Hello,
I am working on a application that uses SSL. But when the clicks a button to donwload a file using IE 6 or IE 7, internet explorer shows a error message saying that "The internet explorer cannot open this site". This error dont occur in Firefox, but i have to use Internet Explorer. And the error occurs only if i use https, with http it works fine.
I search the net and i found that internet explorer has a bug, that when the server sends the http header "Pragma: no-cache" or "Cache-control: no-cache,max-age=0,must-revalidate", then the internet explorer doesnt cache the file, and i cannot open it. See here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316431/en-us
My problem is that OC4J appears to send this headers automatically. I am using Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Application Server Control 10.1.3.3.0. Here, is my code to send the file:
HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse)
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getResponse();
response.setContentType("application/x-download");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachement; filename=\"file.pfx\"");
response.setContentLength((new Long(myFile.length())).intValue());
OutputStream out=null;
try {
out = response.getOutputStream();
fis = new FileInputStream(myFile);
int n;
while ((n = fis.available())> 0) {
b = new byte[n];
int result = fis.read(b);
out.write(b, 0, b.length);
if (result == -1) break;
out.flush();
out.close();
} catch (Exception e){
throw new DownloadException("Erro ao enviar arquivo para o stream de download.");
finally{
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().responseComplete();
You can see that i not send that headers in this code.
Here, is the headers sent to IE when i use https.

Hi!
I don't have a solution fou you, just a few ideas =)
You can check what headers response contains with
response.containsHeader( "your_header_here");
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.2.1/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/http/HttpServletResponse.html#containsHeader(java.lang.String)
after that you could set/overwrite those headers that you don't like with, for example:
response.setHeader("Cache-control", "no-cache,max-age=0,must-revalidate");
Aparently Pragma and Cache-control headers should be used in pair, as noted here
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2005-12/0003.html
quote:"The author of Bad Behavior points out that RFC2616 requires that a
Pragma: header to be accompanied by a Cache-Control: header. From what I
see, it only says "SHOULD" (in section 14.32), but that is still a
strong recommendation and something to be considered, IMHO."
I'm a bit sceptical about you needing to cache the file, but if you feel strong about it, you could read this
http://www.mnot.net/cache_docs/#META
If you're working on SSL there is supposed to be some kind of validation, certificate or something like that. IE6 and 7 both have strong security measures in these regards. Maybe you should look something up in that direction.
Hope I helped.

Internet Explorer GPP vs GPO

Hi,
I am trying to config IE8 (W7), with GPO and GPP. I have trusted zone in GPO and I want to use GPP for other settings like default webpage.
I loaded the GPP and added a web site as an default web page, but I notes that it was trusted zones in GPP also and they where green.
I could not find a way to disable them, the GPO is on a OU level over the GPP. I gues GPP override the GPO...
I would like to understand how to use GPO vs GPP to set IE settings
/SaiTech

Hi SaiTech,
Thank you for posting here.
As you stated that the GPO is on a OU level over the GPP. I assume that the GPP setting is linked to a sub-OU which is under the GPO linked OU.
Generally speaking, GPOs that are linked to the organizational unit that is highest in the Active Directory hierarchy are processed first, So the GPO that is linked to its child organizational unit (GPP) OU has the highest precedence.
More information at:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc785665(WS.10).aspx
To verify the group policy setting, you can run the command "rsop.msc" to check whether the IE group policy setting applies.
To verify the GPP setting, you can run the command "GPRESULT /H GPReport.html" to check whether the GPP setting applies.
To understand how GPO vs GPP setting, you may refer to the official documentation "Group Policy Preferences Overview"
