Description

The Windows NT subkey contains entries that store Group Policy settings for Windows Server 2003. Group Policy creates and maintains these entries, and the system components read and interpret them.

This subkey stores entries that apply to all users of the computer. The system adds these entries when you enable (and, for some policy settings, when you disable) a policy setting in the Computer Configuration folder in Group Policy.

The Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT subkey in HKEY_CURRENT_USER stores policy setting-related entries that are configured separately for each user. The system adds these entries when you enable (and, for some policy settings, when you disable) a policy setting in the User Configuration folder in Group Policy.

Change Method

To add, delete, or change an entry in this subkey, use Group Policy.
