Need Public/Private selection on OWA in 2013 to always be unchecked

Hello

Our agency is requiring that when a user navigates to OWA, that the Private computer checkbox is always unchecked. Currently, we have the box to be unchecked when a user first navigates to the page. However if they check the box and log in, then either close the browser or log out, we are finding that upon returning to the OWA page the box is still checked.

Is there anyway to have the box remain unchecked by default? I have removed the word "checked" from this line

<input id="chkPrvt" onclick="clkSec()" name="trusted" value="4" type="checkbox" checked role="checkbox" aria-labelledby="privateLabel"/>

but if we check it, log in, then log back out and refresh the page it remains checked.

Hi,

Do you have check the configuration for logon.aspx file? If no, please refer to below link:

Basis on my research, once a user clicks "private" a cookie will retain this setting.

Thanks

We've modified the file as that link instructs. We need the box to be un-checked every time the page is loaded. Is there anyway to have the cookie either delete itself or reset after a session is logged out?

And I was able to figure out the issue, technician error.

We use this line of code "setCookie ('regUser','yes');"

I had put a : where the ; is supposed to be. Once I fixed it, it worked exactly as we want it to.

did you check the "ClientAuthCleanupLevel" setting on the OWA virtual directory?  I have mine set to "High".  This should clear out the cookies and temp files.
