# RegistryXML Files

While the Policy contains a Registry.xml file, you can actually create separate, individual XML files that contain Registry settings. I call these RegistryXML Files . . . The neat thing about working in Group Policy Management is the fact that you can Copy anything from GPP Registry

And Paste it in Windows
