NoteHKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\
The Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT subkey stores the entries created when you configure a Group Policy related to Windows 2000. These entries are created and maintained by Group Policy.
The Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT subkey in HKEY_CURRENT_USER stores entries that are configured separately for each user. The system adds these entries when you enable (and, for some policies, when you disable) a policy in the User Configuration folder in Group Policy.
There is also a Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT subkey in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, which stores entries for policies that apply to all users of the computer. The system adds these entries when you enable (and, for some policies, when you disable) a policy in the Computer Configuration folder in Group Policy.
To add, delete, or change an entry in this subkey, use Group Policy.
Note
The system adds this subkey to the registry when you change the default value of one of its entries.
