Tip: When you configure global options, you can lock some of the options to prevent users from editing them later on local machines. To create a locked global options file, run the stand-alone Options Editor from the command line by typing “drive:pathname\OptionsEditor.exe” -l. The Options Editor opens with the locking facility. You can also run the stand-alone Options Editor in administrator mode from the Start menu.
