          It depends on the Internet Explorer version. If you're using IE8 and down then the easiest way is to download a csv file one time and then uncheck the 'Always ask before...' checkbox.
          For IE9 and up, you should:




          1. Launch Registry Editor (Start >> Run >> regedit.exe)

          2. Expand HKEY_CURRENT_USER

          3. Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsShell

          4. If it doesn’t exist, create the AttachmentExecute key

          5. Create the {0002DF01-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} key

          6. Create a new Binary Value with the Name Excel.CSV*

          7. Re-launch IE and test – should be now working ok


          *In order to know the name of the binary value you should run at command prompt the command assoc.csv, in my case it was Excel.CSV



          I got to this answer from several places, mostly from here, but if it still doesn't work I'd try this thread.

            I recently (4-Nov-2015) found that other Group Policies (I don't know which ones; but my project had two different enterprise groups stop auto launching) will disable the auto launch even if the {0002DF01-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} registry entry is in place. To once again regain the auto launch behavior, you have to White-List the application as well. To do this:

            - Create a new Binary Value with the Name: Application<executable_name.exe>

            To continue the above example, you would add the executable for Excel or Applicationexcel.exe as a new Binary value.

            NOTE: Application is not a key. It is simply part of the name.

            I wish I could point to research or documentation on this. This solution was only found by using Microsoft's Process Monitor (procmon) and noticing that the Application<executable_name.exe> name was queried in close proximity to the {0002DF01-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} query. Even after I found the Application White-List element, I still could not find a reference. If someone can find an actual reference, please add it to one of these answers.
