Use IEAK Profile Manager

If you are a corporate administrator, you can use IEAK Profile Manager to maintain the custom version of Internet Explorer 7 that you created using the Internet Explorer 7 Customization Wizard.

Important

For computers running Windows Vista, you should use Administrative Templates in Group Policy, instead of IEAK Profile Manager, to fully manage policies.

The Internet Explorer 7 Customization Wizard creates an .ins file for each custom package that you build. After you install the browser, you can use IEAK Profile Manager to update configuration settings by opening the .ins file, changing settings, and then saving the file. IEAK Profile Manager also keeps the companion files current each time you save the auto-configuration .ins file.

• Move an Auto-Configuration .ins File
