NoteHKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Task Scheduler5.0
| Data type | Range | Default value |
|---|---|---|
| REG_DWORD | 0 | 1 | 0 |
Disables the Cut, Copy, and Paste shortcut items on the context menu and on the Edit menu in Scheduled Tasks. It also disables the drag-and-drop features of the Scheduled Tasks folder. As a results, users cannot add new scheduled tasks by dragging, moving, or copying a document or program into the Scheduled tasks folder.
This entry stores the setting of the Disable Drag-and-Drop Group Policy. Group Policy adds this entry to the registry with a value of 1 when you enable the Disable Drag-and-Drop policy. If you disable the policy or set it to Not configured, Group Policy deletes the entry from the registry and the system behaves as though the value is 0.
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0 | The policy is disabled or not configured. The cut, paste, move, and drag and drop features of the Scheduled Tasks folder are enabled. |
| 1 | The policy is enabled. The cut, paste, move, and drag and drop features of the Scheduled Tasks folder are disabled. |
This entry does not prevent users from using other methods to create new tasks and it does not prevent users from deleting tasks.
To change the value of this entry, use Group Policy. This entry corresponds to the Disable Drag-and-Drop policy (Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Task Scheduler).
Note
This entry can appear in both HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_CURRENT_USER. If this entry appears in both subtrees, the value in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE takes precedence over the value in HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
