Off-Topic: Good & Bads of Windows 10, How to disable updating

It's an MSI packed with 200+ topic files, each containing numerous topics, for a total of 3,000+ Registry settings. The basics are in admx files, which then link to text data in separate adml files. Both are pseudo-XML. Very complicated. Those templates are for plugging into gpedit? I was thinking that anyone who doesn't have Pro, or who just want's more info, might be able to use a help file. So I wrote some scripts to parse the "templates". The result is a CHM file, not perfect but it's a pretty good listing, with index and searchability, of the various Registry settings. See the Readme file in the download for a fuller explanation: https://www.jsware.net/jsware/zips/gpeditchm.zip The project files are included, in case anyone wants to improve on this first version. |
