You can set it to a default setting, and restore to that using startup script or group policy. That way, a user can mess with it, but after they log out, the settings will be reversed. Make sure you use computer startup script, not logon script as these regkeys are applied during logon. See also: superuser.com/questions/981554/… | |

| Mar 5 at 12:22 | comment | added | user374324 | @all It'ok to just prevent sensitivity/swap left right; do you know how to pls? | |

| Mar 5 at 10:35 | comment | added | Bob Goddard | Well, not knowing what settings you are talking about, I would ask why? Just because it works for you, why do feel the need to force it on others? The usual one someone would want to change is swapping from right hand to left. Why would you force that on anyone? | |
