To create a list of registry entries to add to users' computers, choose Add. To change an entry in the

list, select the entry and choose Modify. To remove an entry from the list, select the entry and choose

Remove. Choose Import to add a set of entries from a registry file (.reg file). If an entry in the .reg file

duplicates an entry in the list, the OCT prompts you to decide whether to overwrite existing registry

entries with entries in the .reg file.

Important:

Registry entries customized in this section might override settings that are customized

elsewhere in the OCT. Use this section to customize options that cannot be set directly in the

Office user interface and that are not configurable by using other methods in the OCT.

You should not use the Add registry entries section of the OCT to add registry-based policy

keys (Group Policy-based registry keys). Configuring and distributing those settings in a

customization update (.msp file) to users is not supported, and the settings might not be applied

correctly. Registry-based policy settings are settings that are stored in any of the four registry

locations for Group Policy settings:

For user policy settings:

 HKCU\Software\Policies

 HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies

For computer policy settings:

 HKLM\Software\Policies

 HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies

The supported way to manage registry-based policy keys is to use Group Policy to apply the

registry policy settings. By using Group Policy, you can centrally manage client registry keys.

Use Group Policy to define configurations once and then rely on the operating system to

enforce that state. Administrative Templates files are UNICODE text files that Group Policy

uses to describe where registry-based policy settings are stored in the registry. All registry-

based policy settings appear and are configured in Group Policy Management Editor in Group

Policy Management Console (GPMC) under the Administrative Templates nodes.
