When the limit is reached, Internet Explorer notifies the user, and the user must delete application caches before an updated one can be saved on their computer. The default maximum storage limit for all application caches is 1 GB. If you enable this policy setting, you can set the maximum storage limit for all application caches. The default is 1 GB. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Internet Explorer will use the default maximum storage limit for all application caches. The default is 1 GB.
