Hide previous versions list for local files
This policy setting lets you hide the list of previous versions of files that are on local disks. The previous versions could come from the on-disk restore points or from backup media. If you enable this policy setting users cannot list or restore previous versions of files on local disks. If you disable this policy setting users cannot list and restore previous versions of files on local disks. If you do not configure this policy setting it defaults to disabled.
Prevent restoring previous versions from backups
This policy setting lets you suppress the Restore button in the previous versions property page when the user has selected a previous version of a local file in which the previous version is stored on a backup. If you enable this policy setting the Restore button is disabled when the user selects a previous version corresponding to a backup. If you disable this policy setting the Restore button remains active for a previous version corresponding to a backup. If the Restore button is clicked Windows attempts to restore the file from the backup media. If you do not configure this policy setting it is disabled by default. The Restore button is active when the previous version is of a local file and stored on the backup.
Set the default source path for Update-Help
This policy setting allows you to set the default value of the SourcePath parameter on the Update-Help cmdlet. If you enable this policy setting the Update-Help cmdlet will use the specified value as the default value for the SourcePath parameter. This default value can be overridden by specifying a different value with the SourcePath parameter on the Update-Help cmdlet. If this policy setting is disabled or not configured this policy setting does not set a default value for the SourcePath parameter of the Update-Help cmdlet. Note: This policy setting exists under both Computer Configuration and User Configuration in the Group Policy Editor. The Computer Configuration policy setting takes precedence over the User Configuration policy setting.
Turn on Module Logging
This policy setting allows you to turn on logging for Windows PowerShell modules. If you enable this policy setting pipeline execution events for members of the specified modules are recorded in the Windows PowerShell log in Event Viewer. Enabling this policy setting for a module is equivalent to setting the LogPipelineExecutionDetails property of the module to True. If you disable this policy setting logging of execution events is disabled for all Windows PowerShell modules. Disabling this policy setting for a module is equivalent to setting the LogPipelineExecutionDetails property of the module to False. If this policy setting is not configured the LogPipelineExecutionDetails property of a module or snap-in determines whether the execution events of a module or snap-in are logged. By default the LogPipelineExecutionDetails property of all modules and snap-ins is set to False. To add modules and snap-ins to the policy setting list click Show and then type the module names in the list. The modules and snap-ins in the list must be installed on the computer. Note: This policy setting exists under both Computer Configuration and User Configuration in the Group Policy Editor. The Computer Configuration policy setting takes precedence over the User Configuration policy setting.
Turn on Script Execution
This policy setting lets you configure the script execution policy controlling which scripts are allowed to run. If you enable this policy setting the scripts selected in the drop-down list are allowed to run. The “Allow only signed scripts” policy setting allows scripts to execute only if they are signed by a trusted publisher. The “Allow local scripts and remote signed scripts” policy setting allows any local scrips to run; scripts that originate from the Internet must be signed by a trusted publisher. The “Allow all scripts” policy setting allows all scripts to run. If you disable this policy setting no scripts are allowed to run. Note: This policy setting exists under both “Computer Configuration” and “User Configuration” in the Local Group Policy Editor. The “Computer Configuration” has precedence over “User Configuration. “If you disable or do not configure this policy setting it reverts to a per-machine preference setting; the default if that is not configured is “No scripts allowed. “
Prompt for password on resume from hibernate/suspend
This policy setting allows you to configure client computers to lock and prompt for a password when resuming from a hibernate or suspend state. If you enable this policy setting the client computer is locked and prompted for a password when it is resumed from a suspend or hibernate state. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting users control if their computer is automatically locked or not after performing a resume operation.
Turn off Tablet PC Pen Training
Turns off Tablet PC Pen Training. If you enable this policy setting users cannot open Tablet PC Pen Training. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting users can open Tablet PC Pen Training.
Remove “Work offline” command
This policy setting removes the “Work offline” command from Explorer preventing users from manually changing whether Offline Files is in online mode or offline mode. If you enable this policy setting the “Work offline” command is not displayed in File Explorer. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting the “Work offline” command is displayed in File Explorer.
Synchronize offline files before suspend
Determines whether offline files are synchonized before a computer is suspended. If you enable this setting offline files are synchronized whenever the computer is suspended. Setting the synchronization action to “Quick” ensures only that all files in the cache are complete. Setting the synchronization action to “Full” ensures that all cached files and folders are up-to-date with the most current version. If you disable or do not configuring this setting files are not synchronized when the computer is suspended. Note: If the computer is suspended by closing the display on a portable computer files are not synchronized. If multiple users are logged on to the computer at the time the computer is suspended a synchronization is not performed.
Synchronize all offline files when logging on
Determines whether offline files are fully synchronized when users log on. This setting also disables the “Synchronize all offline files before logging on” option on the Offline Files tab. This prevents users from trying to change the option while a setting controls it. If you enable this setting offline files are fully synchronized at logon. Full synchronization ensures that offline files are complete and current. Enabling this setting automatically enables logon synchronization in Synchronization Manager. If this setting is disabled and Synchronization Manager is configured for logon synchronization the system performs only a quick synchronization. Quick synchronization ensures that files are complete but does not ensure that they are current. If you do not configure this setting and Synchronization Manager is configured for logon synchronization the system performs a quick synchronization by default but users can change this option. This setting appears in the Computer Configuration and User Configuration folders. If both settings are configured the setting in Computer Configuration takes precedence over the setting in User Configuration. Tip: To change the synchronization method without setting a setting in Windows Explorer on the Tools menu click Folder Options click the Offline Files tab and then select the “Synchronize all offline files before logging on” option.
