What part of the registry/security settings control the presentation mode for an installation of Windows XP Pro?
The system I have acquired uses the "clasic" settings for Windows XP Pro. When I try to find how to reset it (either in the startup, in Control Panel, or anywhere) I can't find the setting. I've tried all the regular places in a standard install of WinXP Pro. In fact, I've tried to find the setting based on another system I have installed with the XP Pro OS, and could not find matchin "switches" in the "classic" system.
The system was/is(?) managed from a central server, but it is off the network a majority of the time.
I've concluded that the ability for the user to switch between classic and XP presentations is controlled, most likely, in a security setting somewhere, or a buried registry setting.
Please help.
Thank you.
