Use alternative Webbrowsers Opera 12.16, Apple Safari 5.1.7 and making IE11 Updates are better.

Each of those DWord Keys should be set to a value of “1” to block the automatic install of IE

That’s not what I asked – I asked what the NAME of the entry was, not how to create it.

I found it elsewhere – “DoNotAllowIE10” or “DoNotAllowIE11” depending on which version you’re blocking.

For anyone else who needs the information:

Go to this registry location: HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftInternet ExplorerSetup

For blocking IE 10
1. Create a subkey 10.0
2. Under the 10.0 subkey, in the right-hand pane, create a DWord value called “DoNotAllowIE10”

For blocking IE 11
1. Create a subkey 11.0
2. Under the 11.0 subkey, in the right-hand pane, create a DWord value called “DoNotAllowIE11”

Under that subkey, in the right-hand pane, create a DWord value called “DoNotAllowIE11”

In reply to Dave. On the right hand pane, right clicking the blank area gives your a menu from which you can select New --> DWORD.

You say “Create a new DWORD value in the right hand pane. Set its value to 1 for blocking IE11 installation from Windows Update.”

What is the DWORD value named?
