CATEGORY
Categories appear under Computer Settings or User Settings in the Group Policy snap-in, depending on which class the category is in. A category is specified as follows:
CATEGORY name
[KEYNAME key name]
[policy definition statements]
END CATEGORY
- name
- Category name as it should appear in the Group Policy snap-in.
- key name
- Optional path to the registry key to use for the category. Do not include HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE or HKEY_CURRENT_USER in the registry path. The preceding CLASS statement determines which of these keys will be used.
If a key name is specified, it will be used by all child categories, policies, and parts, unless they specifically provide a key name of their own.
- policy definition statements
- Each category can contain zero or more POLICY statements. A policy definition statement cannot appear more than once in a single category.
