files, and file types.
Also, see the "Enable Active Desktop" setting in User

Description
Removes the Folder Options item from all Windows Explorer menus and from
Control Panel. As a result, users cannot use the Folder Options dialog
box.
This entry stores the setting of the Remove the Folder Options menu item
from the Tools menu 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.
Value Meaning
-----------------------------------------------
0 (or not in the registry) The policy is disabled or not configured. The
Folder Options item appears.
1 The policy is enabled. The Folder
Options item is removed.
The Folder Options dialog box lets users set many properties of Windows
Explorer, such as Active Desktop, Web View, Offline Files, File Types,
and hidden system files.
Change method
To change the value of this entry, use Group Policy. This entry
corresponds to the Remove the Folder Options menu item from the Tools
menu Group Policy (User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows
Components\Windows Explorer).
