Group policy setting to manage IE Mode cache

Question

Hi sorry if this has been answered as I have not found an article that addresses this issue. I have a need in our organization to manage the setting "Clear browsing data for Internet Explorer" for our deployed Edge installations. Legacy app issues are needing to be cleared to work correctly and this needs to be done by policy due to the amount of clients I have to manage. I have the GPO for the standard "clear browsing data" key but that does not set the "Clear chosen data for Internet Explorer and Internet Explorer mode every time you exit Microsoft Edge" key to on. I could do this with Registry too if a GPO setting is not available but have yet to find this key info in my searches either. Would someone please let me know what can be done to control this setting?

Thanks,

Mac

you could use powershellRemove-Item 'C:\Users\*\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\IE' -Recurse -Forceor (trying this tonight...) add an http header to the site which will tell the clients to flush cache immediately. In IIS it might be as simple as...clicking on the gui for HTTP Response Headers.otherwise, more info here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Clear-Site-Data
