Description
Directs the system to display detailed status messages.
This entry stores the setting of the
Verbose vs normal status messages
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 this entry from the registry, and the system behaves as though the value is 0.

Group Policy (Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System).

Note
The
Disable Boot / Shutdown / Logon / Logoff status messages
policy takes precedence over the
Verbose vs normal status messages
policy. When the value of
DisableStatusMessages
is 1, the system does not display status messages, and the
VerboseStatus
entry is ignored.
If this entry appears in the registry, the system ignores the value of
VerboseStatus
in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CurrentVersion\Winlogon.
