SUMMARY
This article describes how to clear the addresses in the Address box in Internet Explorer for UNIX.



MORE INFORMATION
To clear the Address box in Internet Explorer:  Quit any running instances of Internet Explorer. Create a text file with the following contents and save it to a file named ClearAddress.inf:

[Version]

Signature=$Chicago$

AdvancedINF=2.5

[DefaultInstall]

RequiredEngine=SetupAPI,"Fatal Error - Missing SETUPAPI.DLL"

DelReg=TypedURLs

[TypedURLs]

HKCU,"Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs"

 Use the following command line to clear the Address box

installpath/progs/platform/startup regsetup -F inf-file DefaultInstall

where installpath is the path in which Internet Explorer is installed, platform is the platform folder (for example, sunos5 or ux10), and inf-file is the path and name of the .inf file.

For example, a complete command line might be:

/usr/local/microsoft/progs/sunos5/startup regsetup -F /home/joeuser/ClearAddress.inf DefaultInstall
