Hi All,

I would like to disable the protected view in Office application. Since i have multiple office version 2010/2013/2016/O365 and it needs separate group policy settings specific to version.

Instead is there any script which can be deployed to all PC and disable at once. Please suggest

    As you said, the administrative template files of different version of Office maybe different. In my opinion, using group policy is appropriate practice.

    • If you need the script to achieve your goal, it may also be based on administrative template files.
    • If you want to do it via registry, the version number of Office may be different.

    If needed, any issues about script I would recommend you to post on the following forum for assistance, as we are responsible for general issues of Office desktop clients.

    Thanks for your understanding.

    Regards,
    Erin
