IE 11 Temporary Internet Files Settings

$

Hello!

I want to set IE settings for everyone in my company to the desired goal.

This is the desired goal.

Open IE.

Tools -> Internet Options -> General -> Settings.

I want under Temporary Internet Files:

Check for newer version of stored pages to be Every time I visit the webpage

and

Disk Space to use to be 8mb

Initially I tried to set this using a GPO but I have not found anything to do thisfor IE 11 in my research.

I figured instead I could also have a simple script run on all the computers every day to set the settings.

I found I can run this for the 'Check for newer versions of stored pages' setting and it does the trick:

Just changing SyncMode5 to 3

reg add "HKCU\software\microsoft\Windows\CurrrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0" /v SyncMode5 /t REG_DWORD /d 00000003 /f

I then try to do something similar for the 'Disk space to use'

reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\Cache\Content" /v CacheLimit /t REG_DWORD /d 8192 /f

This changes the appropriate Registry Key if I look at the Registry editor, but then I pull up Internet Options -> settings and see that the "disk space to use" has not changed.

If I then Manually change this to a different amount of MB I can go to the registry editor and see the same registry key:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\Cache\Content\CacheLimit has changed.

I figure there must be another key to be changed. A lot of places online say to change the

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Cache\Content\CacheLimit

but that didn't even exist. I tried to make it, and set the appropriate registry key, and that did not work either.

or

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Cache\ContentLimit

and that worked the same way -- manual changes from IE options show here, but when I change in regEdit it doesn't get changed in IE.

Any advise on how to manage the companies settings, or how to set the Registry Key would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
