You might consider running a vbs script instead. Here is one I run on logon that resets the default homepage back to ours. (Even with a group policy, sometimes the homepage gets reset anyway by a website.) ------------------------------------------------------------------ Dim WSHShell, RegLocate, RegLocate1 Set WSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") On Error Resume Next RegLocate = "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\Start Page" WSHShell.RegWrite RegLocate,"http:\\intranet.nwsc.k12.in.us","REG_SZ" WScript.Quit ------------------------------------------------------------------ Excellent reference website - http://www.computerperformance.co.uk/index.htm Jim Hunt Network Services Manager Northwestern School Corporation Kokomo, Indiana

I'm asking because for security issues that we have to upgrade for a couple of machines. I just want the batch file to run rather then going manual into the registry. Thank you
