What are the eight tips of group strategy in the Windows Vista system? many novices are not very clear about this. In order to help you solve this problem, the following editor will explain it in detail. People with this need can come and learn. I hope you can get something.

What is the purpose of group policy? Eight tips on group policy in the Windows Vista system will tell you the specific functions of group policy.

The registry is a database that saves the configuration of the system and application software in the Windows system. With more and more functions of the Windows system, there are more and more configuration items in the registry. In fact, many configurations can be customized, but these configurations are published in every corner of the registry. If the configuration is manual, it is very difficult and complex.

On the other hand, "Group Policy" integrates the important configuration functions of the system into various configuration modules for managers to use directly, so as to achieve the purpose of convenient management of computers. In other words, to modify Group Policy is to modify the configuration in the registry. Let's use Group Policy to accomplish some tasks that seem difficult to accomplish under the Vista system.

1. Let run appear in the start menu

Familiar with DOS friends will often call the black background of the command line window for DOS operations, but the Vista start menu has not seen the "run" item, although the "start" menu "search" box can be used as a "run" box, or click "start → all procedures → accessories → run", you can open the "run" window, but even the first test Vista system "old bird" also feel uncomfortable. At this time, we can click "start" all → programs → attachment → to run, enter gpedit.msc in the "run" dialog box that opens, and then enter to launch the "Group Policy" dialog box. In the left pane of the Group Policy dialog box, click user configuration → Management template → start menu and taskbar, then double-click the add run Command to the start menu item in the right pane, select enabled under the Settings tab of the Open add run Command to start menu Properties dialog box, and then click OK to exit. In this way, run will appear on the start menu.

two。 Turn off Balloon notification

Sometimes a prompt pops up when you are at work, forcing you to click on it, which is very annoying. In fact, in the left pane of the open Group Policy dialog box, click user configuration → Management template → start menu and taskbar, then double-click the close all Balloon Notification item in the right pane, select enabled under the Settings tab of the Open all Balloon Notification Properties dialog box, and then click OK to exit. You can turn off the pesky balloon notice.

3. Record the last time you logged on to the Vista system

The Vista system can record our login information, so that each time you log in to the system, you can compare the two logins. If you find that the time is not the same, it means that someone has tried to log in to your account illegally. In fact, in the left pane of the open Group Policy dialog box, click "computer configuration → Administrative template → Windows component → login options", then double-click the item "Show information about previous logins during user login" in the right pane, and select "enabled" under the Settings tab of the "Show information about previous logins during user login properties" dialog box that opens. Then click OK to exit. So the next time you start the computer, the Vista system will prompt you for the last login time before the user enters the system desktop (see figure).

4. Rename Administrator

Everyone knows that the system administrator account Administrator has * permissions, and that's why some viruses and Trojans always use the well-known account name Administrator to create trouble. In fact, we can also change its name to make it impossible for outsiders to start. In the left pane of the open Group Policy dialog box, click "computer configuration → Windows Settings → Security Settings → Local Policy → Security options", and then double-click the "account: rename system Administrator account" item in the right pane. In the newly opened "account: rename system Administrator account Properties" dialog box, you can rename the system administrator account Administrator.

5. Limit and hide disk partitions

In order to be convenient to use, we sometimes store some data belonging to the level of personal privacy in the common computer shared by many people. In order to ensure the security of these data, the data can be protected by restricting or hiding the disk partition.

In the left pane of the open Group Policy dialog box, click Local computer Policy → user configuration → Management templates → Windows components → Windows Explorer, then double-click the item "prevent access to drives from my computer" in the right pane, then select enabled in the "prevent access to drives from my computer" settings window, and then select "enabled". A drop-down list of selected drives will appear below, select the drives we want to limit and click OK.

If you want to turn off all drives, including optical drives, you can select "restrict all drives". Under "Windows Explorer", there is also the item "hide these specified drives in'my computer'. Through this strategy, you can hide the specified drives, but this strategy can be broken through the IE browser. Type C:\ enter in the address bar to open the hidden C disk partition. For this reason, it is better to use" limit ".

6. Add a lock to "turn off the computer"

In the unit sometimes need to leave the computer temporarily, in order to prevent others from peeping into the computer information, we can use the "WIN+L" shortcut key to lock the computer, however, in the lock page can also perform "turn off the computer", although others can not tamper with the machine, but it can be turned off, so it is necessary to "shut down the computer" and add a "lock". In the left pane of the open Group Policy dialog box, click "computer configuration → Windows Settings → Security Settings → Local Policy → Security options", then go to the right pane to locate and double-click the "shutdown: allow shutdown before login" item, after setting its property to disabled in the pop-up properties dialog box, click OK.

7. Prevent the password from being guessed.

When our Vista password is easy to set, it is easy for illegal users to log in by retrying to "guess" the user's password. In fact, we can limit the number of "guesses". When a user tries to log in to the system for a certain number of times to enter the wrong password, the account is automatically locked, and the user will not be available until the account lock expires, unless the administrator manually unlocks it. In the left pane of the Group Policy dialog box that opens, click "computer Settings → Windows Settings → Security Settings → account Policy → account lockout Policy", and then go to the "account lockout threshold" item in the right pane, where you can set the number of failed login attempts in which the user account is locked. The value is between 0 and 999. The default value is 0, which means that the number of logins is unlimited. We can change it to 3 or 10.

8. Cancel logout from the start menu

In the left pane of the open Group Policy dialog box, click user configuration → Administrative templates → start menu and taskbar, then double-click the Logout item on the Delete [start] menu in the right pane, select enabled under the Settings tab of the Logout Properties dialog box on the Delete [start] menu, and click OK to exit. In this way, the Logout item disappears from the start menu. However, this setting only works on the start menu and does not affect the Logout project on the Windows Security dialog box (which can be opened by pressing the Ctrl+Alt+Del key combination).
