Internet Explorer Homepage

[webmattster]

Internet explorer always opens up to the IE8 upgrade page as the homepage. We have our organization's homepage set as the homepage through Group Policy and I see it set under the Options in IE, as well as in the registry. Is there anyway to stop the IE8 upgrade page from showing up everytime? Thanks!

You need to setup group policy not to display this. I cant remember the name of the policy off the top of my head sorry

computer config\admin templates\internet exploder\prevent performance of first run Customize settings

set to enabled and drop down to go directly to home page

as you were upgrading Internet Explorer have you looked for new admin templates for the server

 

just thought i would ask because i have made that mistake looking for a policy that does not exist due to the admin tempate being for an older version of Internet Explorer.

as said you need to check your templates.
