I would like to disable the View Options Menu in the Windows Explorer. I have some stand alone PC's that I have set up profiles on and I want to prevent the users from being able to select "Show all files" which would give them access to system files that I want to keep hidden. Any ideas how this can be done with a registry edit or a System Policy template? Any help would be appeciated.

If you're using Internet Explorer 5, you can disable it by copying the above and paste it in a text file and name it as (whatever..REG), The extension ^.REG^ is very important so make sure you name the extension the right way, after that just import the registry restart you computer and that it...
