SYMPTOMS
The Internet Explorer desktop icon disappears if you use Desktop Standard PolicyMaker Standard Edition 2.0 to configure the Internet Settings option.



CAUSE
This issue occurs because PolicyMaker Standard Edition has incorrectly saved a property that is removed from the Internet Settings option.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, you must modify an XML element in the Internet Settings option. To do this, follow these steps:  Open the Group Policy object (GPO) for which you configured the Internet Settings option. In the console tree, drag Internet Settings to the desktop. This step creates an XML file that contains these settings. Right-click the XML file that was generated in step 2, click Open With, select Notepad from the Programs list, and then click OK.  Locate the following XML element.    Modify this XML element to match the following code.  Note In this step, you change the Attributes value from 00100024 to 0.  Save and then close the file.</li> Drag the XML file back to the GPO.</li> Delete the original Internet Settings item from the GPO.</li></ol>
