Group Policy not always pushing out proxy, Windows 7 and IE10

[flashsnaps]

Hi all,

 

We have had Server 2008 R2 with XP in place for sometime, but are gradually introducing Windows 7 Pro and IE10.

 

We appear to have an issue where when you open up IE10 on a student or staff login, it doesn't detect the proxy settings from group policy. If you refresh the page it may well then load the webpage?

 

Any ideas? or are we going to consider putting IE9 on them?

It server 2012 that can manage IE10! Server 2008R2 can't as we fond out here too, we rolled back to IE9 all working now.

This is because the Internet Explorer Maintenance settings have been removed from IE10, they aren't even processed. Microsoft are wanting us to move to the GPPs to manage our Internet Options. As w-clarke101 says, you'll need a Win2k12 server with Group Policy Management installed to manage them. Had the same issue here, ended up rolling back to IE9 temporarily until we had time to upgrade one of the servers.
