SYMPTOMS
Favorites may be installed under the Media folder even though they should not be per the policy set in the Internet Explorer Administration Kit (IEAK) Wizard.



CAUSE
The Wmp.adm file from the IEAK\Policies\En folder does not properly set the restrictions for NoMediaFavorites and NoCodecDownload because it does not contain "Part" references in the policy.



RESOLUTION
Manually edit the Wmp.adm file as follows or import the Wmp.adm file from IEAK 5.0. The corrected IEAK 5.01 Wmp.adm file should appear as:


 * wmp.adm



CLASS USER ;;;;;;;



CATEGORY !!WindowsMediaPlayer

KEYNAME "Software\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsMediaPlayer"

POLICY !!NoCodecDownload

PART !!NoCodecDownload CHECKBOX

VALUENAME NoCodecDownload

END PART

END POLICY



CLASS MACHINE ;;;;;;;



CATEGORY !!WindowsMediaPlayer2

KEYNAME "Software\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsMediaPlayer"

POLICY !!CustomizeWindowsMediaPlayer

PART !!NoMediaFavorites CHECKBOX

VALUENAME NoMediaFavorites

END PART

END POLICY

END CATEGORY



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
