📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses a security concern in a kiosk setup where users can access the control panel by clicking "Fix connection problems" on error pages. The original poster seeks a way to disable this button via Group Policy or registry settings. A respondent suggests that Windows 7 offers related policies through the Group Policy editor, referencing specific ADMX templates and registry keys, though they cannot confirm the exact solution on Windows 10.

I am currently working on kiosk and was doing good on locking it down until I discovered that if end user clicks on a broken link they get "This page can't be displayed". The issue is when they get this page there is a "Fix connection problems" button on the page. A user is able to click it and with some navigation can reach the control panel.

Is there a group policy, Registry setting or IE setting that will disable the "Fix connection problems" button?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Windows 7 should support these features via Group Policy. Contents are in sdiageng.admx template file.

key="SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\ScriptedDiagnosticsProvider\Policy"
valueName="EnableQueryRemoteServer"

key="SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\ScriptedDiagnostics"
valueName="EnableDiagnostics"

key="SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\ScriptedDiagnostics" valueName="ValidateTrust"

Unfortunately I'm on a Windows 10 machine right now so I can't help you further, but I'm sure looking through Group Policy you can find them.
