Disables the Hide keyboard navigation indicators until I use the ALT key option in Display in Control Panel.
When Hide keyboard navigation indicators until I use the ALT key option is selected, the underlining that indicates a keyboard shortcut character (hot key) does not appear on menus until you press ALT.
This entry stores the setting of the Disable UI to change keyboard navigation indicator setting 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 Hide keyboard navigation indicators until I use the ALT key option is enabled. |
| 1 | The policy is enabled. The Hide keyboard navigation indicators until I use the ALT key option is disabled. |
Effects, such as transitory underlines, are designed to enhance the user's experience but might be confusing or distracting to some users.
To change the value of this entry, use Group Policy. This entry corresponds to the Disable UI to change keyboard navigation indicator setting policy (User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Explorer).
