The Turn off the Publish to Web task for files and folders machine setting should be configured correctly. Specifies whether the tasks Publish this file to the Web, Publish this folder to the Web, and Publish the selected items to the Web, are available from File and Folder Tasks in Windows folders. The Web Publishing Wizard is used to download a list of providers and allow users to publish content to the Web. If you enable this setting, these tasks are removed from the File and Folder tasks in Windows folders. If you disable or do not configure this setting, the tasks will be shown. Fix: (1) GPO: Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Internet Communication Management\Internet Communication settings\Turn off the "Publish to Web" task for files and folders (2) KEY: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\NoPublishingWizard
