RE: [ActiveDir] Looking for group policy setting

[klas9574]

Hunting arount a bit with RegMon, I was also able to find [HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\tips] "Show"=dword:00000000 and [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\tips] "Show"=dword:00000001.  The HKCU is the one which is toggled when a user checks or unchecks the show on next startup box.  Setting the HK_User to 0 has no effect when a new user logs in.  What I might try next is to create a custom adm for the HKCU and try deploying through group policy that way, since it doesn’t look like there is a policy existent.  I’ll let the group know.   Scott Klassen    From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rich Milburn Sent: Tuesday, January 10, 2006 10:38 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Looking for group policy setting   There’s a widely publicized reg entry but I have had no success in making it work.  I haven’t found a corresponding GPO entry.
