How can I change the check for newer versions of stored pages in IE either
via registry, command-line?


Typlically this would be the way do with user intervention but I have
several machines. Looking for a way to change silenetly and we do not have
AD to send this down in a GPO.


1. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
2. Under Temporary Internet Files, click Settings.
3. Click the option you want, click OK, and then click OK again.

Click to expand...

Which OS? In XP you could use its reg.exe command.
Press Win-F1 and search for reg to learn its (arcane) syntax.
Alternatively for all OS just create a .reg file to import a value
you want to change.

To find that use RegMon (freeware from SysInternals) to monitor
all SetValue changes when you change that value using the UI.
Then doubleclick on the line that you suspect is the one associated
with the change. That will open up RegEdit at the location of the
change. Toggle it back to confirm that you have found the right value
and press F5 in RegEdit. (Make sure that only one value is being
changed by the UI or your mod will become more complicated.)
Then just use RegEdit's Copy Key Name command as the base
for your reg.exe operands or File, Export... to create the .reg file.

Etc.


Hmm... here's another case where OS matters:

<title>KB831787 - “Prevent Access to Registry Editing Tools” policy changes in Windows XP</title>

(TechNet search for
regedit silent
)


BTW this question may be better answered in a newsgroup
which specializes in administration or automation for your
target OS.
