Wrong answer, please ignore
Hi,
So far as I know, there is no such registry key for these items.

I've tried saving my setting changes while in a template, but the settings revert back.
if there is no Reg Key for these settings, how can we set them globally?
Thanks,
Fawn

Hi Fawn,
According to Tony Jollans MVP's post, you can find the registry key at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Data\settings
But the value is written in binary, so it is not recommended to modify it.
And also thanks for Tony Jollans' kind sharing.
Sincerely,
Max Meng

Max,
Thank you very much for returning and amending the thread.
I would agree that few people would be competent to modify this setting directly in the registry and I would not recommend it either :-)
In her first response to you, Fawn asked how she could set these options globally and the best way to do that is with Group Policy.
Enjoy,
Tony

Hi Tony,
Thanks for remanding me that, but actually I didn't see such settings in the Group Policy.

Hi Tony - I'm looking to check this box by GPO as well. How would you modify the admin templates to make this setting available?
Thank you!
