removing IEM properly

-
Hello
we have an rds setup with 2 farms (4 RDS each). we recently introduced the 2nd farm but are using ONLY IE 9 admin templates to set rules for IE. on RDS farm 1, we are still using IEM policies. the IEM policies are still applying to farm 2 but the IE 9 admin template GPO takes precedence and applies to farm 2 first.
for farm 1, we plan to unlink the IEM policies THEN use apply a normal IE 9 admin template GPO. Is this a safe way of removing the older IEM policies from use or is there another way to ensure no registry complications down the line?
regards,
InfoAdmin

You can simply unlink the GPO that has been configured with these settings, this should be enough to move away from Internet Explorer Maintainence settings.
If you have configured IEM within your Default Domain Policy or another GPO that you’d like to continue using, you can then right click on "Internet Explorer Maintenance" and click "Reset Browser Settings". After doing this, make sure to follow the steps mentioned in this KB article to clean Client Side Extensions:
