About the settings
Excel 2010 settings
PowerPoint 2010 settings
Word 2010 settings

Before you can use the settings discussed in this article, you must install the Office 2010 Administrative Template files (ADM, ADMX, ADML) and Office Customization Tool (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=189316) download package, which contains new and updated Group Policy administrative template files and OCT files.

About the settings

For each setting, the following information is provided:

The application to which the setting applies
The setting name
What the setting does
The default configuration for the setting
Where to find the setting in the Group Policy Object Editor
- Unless otherwise noted, you will find Group Policy settings under the User Configuration/Administrative Templates node of the Group Policy Object Editor when you edit a local or domain-based Group Policy object (GPO).
Note

The locations in the Group Policy Object Editor presented in this article apply when you invoke the Group Policy Object Editor to edit a GPO. To edit local Group Policy, use the Local Group Policy Editor. To edit domain-based Group Policy, use the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC). Either tool invokes the Group Policy Object Editor when you edit a GPO. For more information, see Use Group Policy to enforce Office 2010 settings and Group Policy overview for Office 2010.
Where to find the setting in the Office Customization Tool (OCT)
- Unless otherwise noted, you will find OCT settings on the Modify user settings page of the OCT when you configure a setup customization file.
Note

If the geographic location of the computer on which you are running the OCT is set to a European location, when you create a new Setup customization .msp file, or open an existing customization .msp file for which file format settings have not been configured for Excel 2010, PowerPoint 2010, or Word 2010, you might be prompted to choose a default file format for users. You can choose to keep the current settings for the Setup customization file, or choose either Office Open XML formats (which support all the features of Office 2010), or OpenDocument formats. For more information about these file formats, click Learn more to access OCT help.
The OCT was updated in September 2013 to include Croatia as a geographic location that supports the display of the File format dialog box. If you plan to deploy Office in Croatia, be sure to download the most current version of the OCT.

Word 2010 settings

The following table lists the Group Policy settings and the OCT settings that address OpenDocument Format and Open XML Formats for Word 2010.

Setting name	What it does	Default configuration	Group Policy Object Editor location	OCT location
Save As Open XML in Compatibility Mode	Allows you to hide the ''Maintain compatibility with previous versions of Word'' check box that appears in the Save As dialog when users save a file as an Open XML file format. This check box lets users preserve the fidelity of documents that open in compatibility mode when they save those documents to any of the Open XML file formats. Checking this box will prevent conversion to the version of Word that is saving the file. Conversion maximizes fidelity with the version of Word that is saving the file, and we recommend it for users who want their Word documents to be compatible with this version of Word. However, conversion might impact the fidelity and compatibility of some features when the file is opened by an earlier version of Word.
