How to deploy registry change or GPO for improving email searching if no admin right or no GPO in domain

We are using Outlook 2010, and find the below GPO is very useful to improve the reliability of "searching" email.

computer config / admin template / windows components /search/ (enable) disable indexer backoff

However, we cannot find this GPO on domain level. Then we find the below registry having the same effect

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Search] "DisableBackoff"=dword:00000001

Then another problem exist is that our end user has no administrator right to change the registry if we deploy this by VBA.

So, any help if we deploy it?

What do you mean by "However, we cannot find this GPO on domain level"
Also registry setting is computer based
Use gpo preference to deploy registry
Then it will not dependent on users
