alter registry through group policy
Hi,
Everytime my users click in explorer, a new window is opened. The registry key that's responsible for doing that is :
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software
0c,00,02,00,2a,01,00,00,60
Where can I put this alteration in group policy ?
is it under Computer of user? is it gpo? or is it a gppreference ?
Our DC is W 2008 R2
Thanks for helping out
Kind regards,
Alex

I would recommend for that Group Policy Preferences (GPP)
You can simply set up there registry key to modify (update)
More about that you will find in this guide at

If you have Windows 7 cleints then you don't have to do anything more. But in case that you have XP clients, you need to download and install Client Side Extension (CSE) on them to apply this GPO
CSE can be downloaded from

I'll get back at you. I first want to try the GPP side of the story.
@iSiek
I've allready been testing a bit with GPP and the problem is that it only works on newly created accounts. Even when I restart the computer, the setting is not altered. I assume the GPP is set on Computer, and not in user ?

Create a GPO to Computer level
From GPO, go to Computer -> startup script doing something like "regedit / s myReg.reg" to import it
