Description

Prevents Internet Explorer from automatically installing components. If you enable this policy, it prevents Internet Explorer from downloading a component when users browse to a Web site that needs that component. If you disable this policy or do not configure it, users will be prompted to download and install a component when visiting a Web site that uses that component. This policy is intended to help the administrator control which components the user installs.

Registry

Export Builder

BETA

Configure the state, scope and options, then generate .reg, PowerShell, Intune and SCCM outputs — or add the setting to a multi-setting collection.

These exports write the registry — this is not a managed GPO.
