Determines whether users can enable/disable LAN connections. If you enable this setting, the Enable and Disable options for LAN connections are available to users (including nonadministrators). Users can enable/disable a LAN connection by double-clicking the icon representing the connection, by right-clicking it, or by using the File menu. If you disable this setting (and enable the 'Enable Network Connections settings for Administrators' setting), double-clicking the icon has no effect, and the Enable and Disable menu items are disabled for all users (including administrators). Important: If the 'Enable Network Connections settings for Administrators' is disabled or not configured, this setting will not apply to administrators on post-Windows 2000 computers. If you do not configure this setting, only Administrators and Network Configuration Operators can enable/disable LAN connections. Note: Administrators can still enable/disable LAN connections from Device Manager when this setting is disabled. Fix: (1) GPO: User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Network\Network Connections!Ability to Enable/Disable a LAN connection (2) REG: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Network Connections!NC_LanConnect
