/instie10 installs Internet Explorer 11 [by design]

wsusoffline is 10.6.1 currently, it auto-checks for self-updates daily (via script), and also sets itself to Russian with
Code: Select all
cmd\RemoveGermanLanguageSupport.cmd
cmd\AddCustomLanguageSupport.cmd rus


Third time in 2 weeks I am starting it on freshly installed Win7 Pro 64-bit systems with command
Code: Select all
cmd\DoUpdate.cmd /nobackup /updatercerts /updatecpp /instdotnet35 /instdotnet4 /updatetsc /instie10 /autoreboot

And it installs IE11 instead of IE10.

I spotted as wsusoffline starts IE11 installer via command line, so it's not normal windows update.

Also, because I really don't want IE11 at all, I even
Code: Select all
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Setup\11.0" /v "DoNotAllowIE11" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f /reg:64

right after Windows install (before connecting to LAN).

Don't know how long ago it started but around half year ago it still installed IE10 as requested.

As MS will just support the most recent IE on the OSes since Feb-2016, wsusou will now install the most recent one. You may install IE10 manually and block wsusou's IE11 setup using "/skipieinst".
