IE 11 Warning after changing Home Page in the registry


In my C# application I need to set the Home Page for the users of a PC. I know that you need to change this registry key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main

and set

Start Page = "my_start_page"

The problem is that when I first launch IE after the change, I get this warning

enter image description here

Anyone knows how I can get rid of it?


Solution

  • Setting this registry key will remove it.

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MAIN\FeatureControl\FEATURE_EUPP_GLOBAL_FORCE_DISABLE]
    "iexplore.exe"=dword:00000001
    

    I also use this key stop the "welcome" tab from appearing.

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
    "DisableFirstRunCustomize"=dword:00000001
