DisableFirstRunWizard specifies whether to skip the First Run Wizard when the user runs Windows® Internet Explorer® for the first time.

The Internet Explorer First Run Wizard helps users complete the browser-installation process by prompting them to define the default search provider, the phishing filter settings, and so on.

Important

If both DisableFirstRunWizard and IEWelcomeMsg are set, the value for IEWelcomeMsg is used to determine whether the First Run Wizard is displayed. We recommend that you clear the value for IEWelcomeMsg, and use the DisableFirstRunWizard setting instead.

Note

When the user runs Internet Explorer for the first time, the user may also see the welcome page. For more information, see DisableWelcomePage.

Values

true	Skips the First Run Wizard when Internet Explorer runs for the first time. When the user opens the browser, the default values for the installation process are selected.
false	Starts the First Run Wizard when Internet Explorer runs for the first time. This is the default value.
