Disable Accessibility checker options in Outlook thru GPO or Registry key

Hi, I'm wondering if there is a way to disable the "Accessibility checker options" in Outlook 365, thru the use of a GPO, or a registry key? I know there's an option in Outlook itself (File -> Options -> Accessibility -> "Show me accessibility warnings only when I open the accessibility checker") but I'd like to roll this out to all of our users. Preferably by using a Group Policy, but adding a registry key is also an option.
Can this be done?
Thanks, Geert

    Hi @Geert Stoelen

    Welcome to our forum!

    Based on my research and searching, there is no official documentation that disable the secondary check option in Outlook by way of GPO or Registry key. Currently it can only be set through the options of the Outlook client.
