Does anyone know how to change the syncmode of IE by code?

Manually you can do it by the following steps:

- Open IE.
- GO to tools
- GO to Internet options
- choose button Settings
- see the first radio buttons, I need a script or code to set this to "automatically"

Who can help me?


Thanks,
Wim
 
create a script which writes to the registry and sets the registry value for this option.
WshShell.RegWrite(etc.....)
 
mrmovie or anybody...

I dont know much about scripting the registry... so if anybody can help me with that...


I've done some digging in the registry and found the key that sets the option. Only problem is that it is only applied after closing ALL open Internet Explorers and then re-opening a new browser.

Key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software/Microsoft\WindowsCurrentVersion\InternetSettings\SyncMode

value must be 4 (decimal)



Thanks,
Wim
