Server 2003 / Server 2012 / GPO / IE Maintenace

Hi,

We have a server 2003 environment that has just been upgraded to server 2012.

It looks like the GPOs haven't been changed as there are GPOs that still reference IE maintenance that have specified a proxypac file

I understand the process to be that these GPOs should be replaced with new GPOs using group policy preferences.

Just a quick question:

Have you used GPUpdate.exe to refresh the GPO settings you have applied?

Yes, that is true.
basically what you can do, just unlink old policies (IE maintenance) and use 2012 \ win 8 management server \ machine with GPMC installed to create new polices and then set IE preferences from there.
You will find there IE Preferences for IE 5,6 and IE 7 and IE 8,9 and IE 10 as well
IE 10 will also take care of IE 11 as well if your client has that installed
