Follow these steps to configure the IE URL Lock using the Microsoft Group Policy Editor:
- If you are using Active Directory:
- If you are not using Active Directory:
- In either the Computer Configuration or the User Configuration, expand the Administrative Templates tree.
- If the IE URL Lock category is not present under Administrative Templates, then right-click on Administrative Templates and select Add/Remove Templates. Otherwise, skip to step #7.
- In the Add/Remove Templates window, click on the Add button.
- Navigate to the folder that you installed the IE URL Lock to, which is usually "C:\Program Files\IE URL Lock". Select the IEURLLock.adm file and press Enter or Open. Press Close on the Add/Remove Templates window. Depending on the speed of your computer, a few seconds to almost half of a minute will pass as the Group Policy Editor parses all the administrative templates.
- Edit the IE URL Lock configuration in the Group Policy Editor. All settings are thoroughly documented. Note that the "Enable User-Specific Configurations" and "Debugging" settings are only computer-specific and are not in the user-specific policies.
