Windows: Enable or disable Internet Explorers Developer tools

Hi,

the Internet Explorer is shipped with its own Developer Tools for developing, analyzing or modifing Websites in real time.

Due to company restrictions these developer tools can be enabled or disabled. This is done by a registry key.

To enable IE developer tools remove the Registry Value

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\IEDevTools\Disabled

C:\> reg delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\IEDevTools" /v Disabled /f

To enable set a DWORD Value Disabled to 1

C:\> reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\IEDevTools" /v Disabled /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
