Here is my goal. This will be run on one Windows XP machine only, for trouble shooting purposes. We need to be able to remotely execute.

psexec \\computername -d -e -u domain\administrator -p password cmd /c "RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ResetIEtoDefaults"

I have tried and it will not execute.

psexec \\computername -d -e -u domain\administrator -p password cmd /c "MicrosoftFixit50195.msi /qn"

Ideally I would like to find all the reg keys that are changed when you run the fixes above, but I have searched for hours and have found nothing.

  • Is your real question "How do I reset IE from the command line?"

  • Affirmative. I need a way of sitting at my machine and reset IE to its default state on a remote machine.

    Maybe you could edit your question to clarify. It has potential to be excellent Google material.

  • Thanks @jscott I did up date the title. I actually googled my problem and it came up on the first page.

You need to run Process Monitor as you run the patches.

  • Ok after running the process monitor, I have decided that is not an option considering that it modified 5081 reg key values. I am back to figuring out why I cannot run either rundll32 with the parameters I have listed nor the msi file on remote xp machines.
