Hello,
We changed to Internet Explorer 10 some time ago. This problem has been persistent from the day one. The problem is that after every Windows Update some users get their Local Area Network (LAN) Settings (Control Panel --> Internet Options --> Connections-TAB --> LAN settings) totally blanked. We are using the automatic configuration script so this is the only setting I'm really interested about. There is no single windows update that effects this. Every Windows Update that touches the Internet Explorer will erase the options.
- We are using new Group Policy to push USER settings to clients (USER Config... / Preferences / Control Panel Settings / Internet Settings)
- I have also made another GP that will send the right REG values (USER Config... / Preferences / Windows Settings / Registry) Also I push these settings on logon-script if they are not present.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]"AutoConfigURL"="http://proxy.server.address:1812/pac_files/proxy.pac"
After user takes restart the settings are fine again. Also running gpupdate and starting Internet Explorer again fixes the problem. Any ideas would be great... I dunno maybe it would be possible to push these settings to HKLM side to make them the new "defaults". I will post updates how that goes.
