Help using ADM templates in GPO

[ajf]

I am setting up some new GPOs on the network.
One of the things I wanted to do was set some settings in IE11.
Apparently this needs an add on ADM template before I can do it.

I have downloaded the ADM file but cannot find any clear instructions on how to use it.
I am editing the GPOs on my Windows 7 laptop using the server admin tools that are installed.

Thank you for that.
I will walk myself through that and see how I get on.

Don't worry, I've already created a copy of one of our existing GPOs which I am editing and using for testing. We have several which I am condensing into one and also updating for Windows 7 machines rather than our old XP boxes which are being replaced.

Not sure if you can help me on another related issue.
Found the admx files for IE11 and have copied them into the folder structure as shown in your original post.
When I open up Group Policy Management (on server or my laptop) it shows the options under Administrative Templates -all good.
However a number of things I want to do require setting a new option under User Configuration - Preferences -Internet Settings.
This site shows what I mean:

When I try this I still only get options up to IE8.

Any ideas what I am missing?

I already have an admx and adml file for IE11 which I imported.
The IE 10 seems to be an adm file and if added to the templates manually just does the same as the IE 11 admx files.
I still cannot add an IE 10 setting to the internet settings as my links shows should happen.
Does the functional level of the domain have any impact here?
