All right.
So now I want to demo what we just talked about with the GPP registry extension.
I've created this GP registry policy.
So I'll go ahead and edit it.
And let's create some pre user registry entries.
So we go under preferences Windows Settings Registry.
And the first one I want to create is just a standalone registry value.
So I'm going to go ahead and pick a key under HQ White underscore current, underscore user and then
just browsing my existing system here.
So let's take a key under this Netscape Navigator viewers and will pick this type one value here.
So we're going to do it under Netscape Navigator viewers type one just random value.
And I can set the value type if I want to change it when I deliver it to my system.
Or I can change this.
So maybe I'll make this v and instead of ftf.
It doesn't affect my local registry here.
It's just this is what I'm going to deliver to the client.
So I'm going to go ahead and click okay on that.
So that's one registry item that I've delivered in this policy.
Now what I want to do is run the registry wizard and I can either choose this computer to browse the
registry or another computer.
I'll go ahead and use this one, and I'm going under.
Q I underscore current underscore user software, and I'm going to go down to this my software key,
and I'm going to pick all of the values under this my software key and tell it that I want these values
to be delivered to my client system.
So let's go ahead and pick these values.
And so I picked the keys.
I also picked the values.
And I'm going to go ahead and click finish here.
So now what I've done is I've got a new HQ.
I underscore current underscore user registry collection, if you will, underneath here.
And it has all of the values that I picked.
So it's going to create the key and it's going to create these three values underneath the key.
And then I've still got my type one registry value that I created by hand sort of manually.
So I've got the wizard values and I've got the type one value.
So now let's go ahead and link this GPO to that sales slash users.
Oh, you.
So now this GP registry policy is linked and will be applied to sales users.
So let's go back to my Windows client.
Let's bring up the registry editor.
Make sure that we've got a clean machine here.
So if I go in under HQ, I underscore current underscore user software.
I've got some Netscape keys in here, so it looks like I have my type one, but it's got the Vandy underscore
ftf extension on it.
So we're going to see in action how policy's going to change that.
And you'll also notice that under that software key, I don't have the my software key that I've grabbed
through the registry wizard.
So let's go ahead and do our update targeting the user.
And that's run.
So now what I'm going to do is I'm just going to go view refresh.
And if I go in under the Netscape key, under Netscape Navigator and under viewers, you'll see that
it's changed type one to RFD, just like I had specified.
And we also have the my software key that was generated and all the values from that key have been added
to the registry.
So again, a really quick and easy way to deliver registry changes to really any key.
And the registry wizard gives you the ability to sort of take groups of registry values that have been
set on one machine and replicated them out to another.
So that can be really powerful if you're trying to duplicate configuration of an application that doesn't
necessarily have an install routine, but you know where its registry keys are kept.
So now what I want to do is summarize what we've learned in this module and hopefully you've gotten
a sense of the power of GP preferences and the flexibility that it has in just these few preference
areas that I've talked about.
