Additional Information
To
duplicate:
- Setup a User Group Policy with an IE setting to change the IE Homepage URL. Also, enable the Cache User Settings checkbox.
Log in to the network and apply the Group Policy. Notice that everything applies correctly, even the IE Homepage Setting. Logout and login locally. Launch IE. Notice that the homepage is not correct. With Cache User Settings enabled, this should remain the same as above no matter if you login to the network or login locally.
Note that this problem only occurs if the policy contains only Internet Explorer settings, and if the user is logging in locally. In these circumstances, no registry.pol file exists, and ZEN thinks there are no settings to apply.
