IIS Tweaks - Control Active Server Pages Browser Buffering

This setting controls whether Active Server Pages (ASP) buffers output to a browser. If this setting is enabled then all output is collected before any is sent to the browser. This fixes some problems with incomplete and random data being sent to a browser using Internet Information Server (IIS).

  1. Open the Registry Editor click on the Start button on your taskbar, then click on Run and type "regedit" and click on OK to start the regedit utility.
     
  2. Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\ASP\Parameters (see picture 1).

  3. Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value, named "BufferingOn" and set the value to "1" to enable buffering.
     
  4. The modifications you made will be in effect after you restart or logout you PC.
