Removes the Settings tab from Display in Control Panel. As a result, users cannot use the Display program to add, configure, or change the display settings on the computer.
This entry stores the setting of the Hide Settings tab Group Policy. Group Policy adds this entry to the registry with a value of 1 when you enable the 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 (or not in registry) | The policy is disabled or not configured. The Settings tab appears. |
| 1 | The policy is enabled. The Settings tab is removed. |
To change the value of this entry, use Group Policy. This entry corresponds to the Hide Settings tab policy (User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Control Panel\Display).
