Reset Internet Explorer security zone to default level

Is there an API or whatever which can reset Internet zone to its default value (like the arrow).

I didn't find any method in IInternetZoneManager interface to do that.

You may have to change registry settings from your code.
This would be a good place to start:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones[Zone Number]

Zone numbers are:
0 = My Computer
1 = Local
2 = Trusted Sites
3 = Internet
4 = Restricted

You may have to copy the value of DWORD RecommendedLevel to that of CurrentLevel for Internet Zone 3 (which is Internet zone).

Reference: Internet Explorer security zones registry entries for advanced users


Have you tried using IInternetZoneManager::CopyTemplatePoliciesToZone method using dwTemplate equal to 0x00011000 which is the Recommended level?
