Prevent setting of the code download path for each machine

This policy setting prevents the setting of the code download path for each machine. The Internet Component Download service exposes a function that is called by an application to download, verify, and install code for an OLE component. Using this setting, the user can set the code download path.

If you enable this policy setting, the user cannot specify the download path for the code. You must specify the download path.

If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, the user can specify the download path for the code.

Supported on: At least Internet Explorer 7.0
