NoteHKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
| Data type | Range | Default value |
|---|---|---|
| REG_DWORD | 0 | 1 | 1 |
Determines whether the instructions in a startup script are displayed as the script runs.
This entry stores the setting of the Run startup scripts visible Group Policy. Group Policy adds this entry to the registry with a value of 0 when you enable the Run startup scripts visible policy. If you disable the policy, Group Policy sets the value to 1. If you set the policy to Not configured, Group Policy deletes the entry from the registry and the system behaves as though the value is 1.
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0 | The policy is enabled. The system displays each instruction in the startup script as it runs. The instructions appear in a command window. This setting is designed for advanced users. |
| 1 | The policy is disabled or not configured. The instructions in a startup script are suppressed. |
To change the value of this entry, use Group Policy. This entry corresponds to the Run startup scripts visible policy (Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Logon).
Note
This entry takes precedence over a user setting. When this entry appears in the registry, a policy is in effect, and the system ignores the value of HideStartupScripts in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CurrentVersion\Winlogon.
Tip
For detailed information about particular Group Policy settings, see the Group Policy Reference (Gp.chm) on the Windows 2000 Resource Kit companion CD.
