That depends on where in the registry this is set. GPO as far as i know only support this registry locations. For computer policy settings: · HKLM\Software\Policies (The preferred location) · HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies For user policy settings: · HKCU\Software\Policies (The preferred location) · HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies I have a MS whitepaper on creating custom templates, let me know if you want a copy.
