Enable Active Desktop

Enables Active Desktop and prevents users from disabling it. This setting prevents users from trying to enable or disable Active Desktop while a policy controls it. If you disable this setting or do not configure it, Active Desktop is disabled by default, but users can enable it. Note: If both the Enable Active Desktop setting and the Disable Active Desktop setting are enabled, the Disable Active Desktop setting is ignored. If the Turn on Classic Shell setting ( in User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Explorer) is enabled, Active Desktop is disabled, and both of these policies are ignored. Fix: (1) GPO: User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Desktop\Desktop!Enable Active Desktop (2) REG: HKEY_USERS\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer!ForceActiveDesktopOn
