Configure a Windows Vista Start Menu Item

  • Статья

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

Windows Vista Start Menu preference items allow you to update the Start menu for computers running the Windows Server 2008 or Windows Vista operating systems. Start Menu preference items do not provide a selection of actions because the only possible action is Update.

Creating a Start Menu (Windows Vista) item

To create a new Start Menu preference item for Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista

  1. Open the Group Policy Management Console. Right-click the Group Policy Object (GPO) that should contain the new preference item, and then click Edit.

  2. In the console tree under User Configuration, expand the Preferences folder, and then expand the Control Panel Settings folder.

  3. Right-click the Start Menu node, point to New, and select Start Menu (Windows Vista).

  4. In the New Start Menu (Windows Vista) Properties dialog box, enter Start menu options for Group Policy to configure. (For more information, see Enable and Disable Settings in a Preference Item.)

  5. Click the Common tab and configure any options desired. (For more information, see Configure Common Options.)

  6. Click OK. The new preference item appears in the results pane.

Additional considerations

  • Settings that are unavailable cannot be enabled or disabled. You cannot configure these settings using a Start Menu preference item.

  • You can use item-level targeting to change the scope of preference items.

  • Preference items are available only in domain-based GPOs.
