Disable “Run-Once” from Internet Explorer
June 10, 2008 · Print This Article
I have finally had it with Internet Explorer loading the Run-Once page everytime I open a new browser window. These Microsoft “Features” have to stop! If you are annoyed as I am about this default webpage, just follow the steps below to rid yourself of Run-Once rage.
Disabling Run-Once
At least relief is not a hard pill to swallow, the fix is actually pretty simple.
1. Create a new notepad document.
2. Paste the following into the document:
3. Now choose Save As and save the document as a registry file by choosing Save As Type = All Files and by naming the file Killrunonce.reg.
4. Finally set your new registry values by double-clicking the registry file you just created. (Note: You will need to say Yes to the prompt.)
Open Internet Explorer again and you should see your wonderful new homepage and your Run-Once anger will quickly melt away.
THANK YOU! I couldn’t take that webpage any longer. I kind of think it is funny calling it run-once.
