When you use the Internet Explorer Tools menu to open Internet Options, the General tab allows you to configure
Days to keep pages in history.
You can change this value in a batch, or logon script, by setting the DaysToKeep Value Name, a REG_DWORD data type, at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Url History.
Examples of setting DaysToKeep to 3:
Using REG.EXE, built into Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and later, or installed from the Windows 2000 Support Tools on the operating system CD-ROM:
REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Url History" /V DaysToKeep /T REG_DWORD /F /D 3
Using REGEDIT.EXE:
Regedit /s FileName.regWhere FileName.reg contains:
REGEDIT4 \[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Url History\] "DaysToKeep"=dword:00000003
Using a batch to generate a .REG file:
@echo off setlocal set rf="%TEMP%\DaysToKeep_%RANDOM%.TMP" ( @echo REGEDIT4 @echo. @echo \[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Url History\] @echo "DaysToKeep"=dword:00000003 @echo. )>%rf% regedit /s %rf% del /q %rf% endlocal
