Description

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 this entry from the registry, and the system behaves as though the value is 0.
