Where can I disable "Automatically detect settings" in the Proxy configuration for all users?

I've configured the following policy:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
"ProxySettingsPerUser"=dword:00000000

But I can't find the registry setting for HKLM that disables "Automatically detect settings".

  • I'm assuming this is for IE and are you using GPOs to do this?

  • This is for the system Internet Options (which are used by IE). GPOs: yes

Group Policy is the best way to do this.

User Configuration --Windows Settings ----Internet Explorer Maintenance ------Connection/Automatic Browser Configuration --------Automatically detect configuration settings: set to "Disabled"

  • you can also run "gpupdate /force" instead of logoff/logon!
