How can i make it so that my kids can't clear the IE history?

[Guest]

I know that it can be done, because i did it at my last job but i can't
remember what the file that I ran was....does anyone have any idea how to do
this?

You can edit the registry to have the Clear History in IE disabled or
enabled.

For Current User
[HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel]
Name: History
Type: DWORD
Value: 1 (Clear History disabled) 0 (Clear History Enabled)

For All Users
[HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel]
Name: History
Type: DWORD
Value: 1 (Clear History disabled); 0 (Clear History Enabled)

You can edit the registry, as stated above... or you can use Group Policy Editor...
Start Menu - Run - Type in: gpedit.msc ... then OK.
Then... User Configuration... Admin Templates... Windows Components... Click Internet
Explorer. On the right you'll see "Disable Changing History Settings."
Double-click, then choose enable... then OK.

That should do it.
