Is there any way to dump Internet Explorer settings to a textfile?

Topic says it all. Some stuff aren't working on some of my clients' browsers, and we have narrowed it down to an IE-error, but it would be GREAT to have a way of easily comparing IE's settings.

Anyone got an idea?

Can you export Internet Explorer settings?

Navigate to Local computer policy ->Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Internet Explorer. Right click on Internet Explorer and you can export all the settings.

Where are IE settings stored?

These settings are saved in the registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones . After configuring your settings, you can export the registry keys for later use. Each key under Zones corresponds to a zone in your IE settings: Local intranet.

If on XP and up: in command prompt, enter (with quotes!) for current user settings:

reg export "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer" ie_hkcu.txt

in command prompt, enter (with quotes!) for machine settings:

reg export "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer" ie_hklm.txt
