    We can add custom templates categories which could contain our custom templates.

    e.g.

    Hi Rick,

    Please read the article carefully, thanks. 

    It do will distribute this to all the users in a domain environment. For the "local keys" you mentioned, although it is teached to use the OCT to distribute, but I think it also can be delivered by the group policy?

    Sincerely,

    Max Meng

    Change what? Delete the registry key and add a new one?

    See: Configure a Registry Item

    An easier way is to create a .reg file and deploy it with a logon script.

    Although you can make it harder, see below if needed.
