To completely disable IPv6 on a Windows Server 2008-based computer, follow these steps:


  • Open Registry Editor.
  • Locate the following registry subkey:
  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip6\Parameters
  • In the details pane, click New, and then click DWORD (32-bit) Value.
  • Type DisabledComponents, and then press ENTER.
  • Double-click DisabledComponents, and then type 0xffffffff in Hexadecimal or 4294967295 in Decimal.
Note :The 0xffffffff value or the 4294967295 value disables all IPv6 components except for the IPv6 loopback interface.

The value should be 0xFF, to avoid 5 second boot delay.

You can set it with a GPO, CMD, PowerShell:
