Hi All,
We have a web application due to security constraints use to has to enable few of the settings in IE then only it will work properly. But we are facing to change those settings in every user machine. I want to automate as whenever user open our website automatically IE settings has to be enabled however we want. For Example we want to enable below settings automatically in IE whenever user visits our website.

IE -> Security -> Custom Level (Security Settings) -> ActiveX controls and plug-ins -> Enable all sub items

General -> Settings -> Temporary Internet Files -> Every time I visit the webpage (Enable)

Advanced -> Security -> Use TLS 1.0 (Enable)

Please suggest.

You can't. You can write instructions for the user, but you cannot override client settings - and with good reason.

Imagine if you could get on the site (that you don't know is malicious) and it takes over your browser.

For the same reason you cannot change print settings, the best you can do is call print dialog and wait for the user UNLESS said user changes his settings.

You should post this as a solution. :)
