# Manage the Settings app with Group Policy
Starting in Windows 10, version 1703, you can now manage the pages that are shown in the Settings app by using Group Policy. This lets you hide specific pages from users. Before Windows 10, version 1703, you could either show everything in the Settings app or hide it completely.

To make use of the Settings App group polices on Windows server 2016, install fix [4457127](https://support.microsoft.com/help/4457127/windows-10-update-kb4457127) or a later cumulative update.
>[!Note]
>Each server that you want to manage access to the Settings App must be patched.
To centrally manage the new policies copy the ControlPanel.admx and ControlPanel.adml file to [Central Store](https://support.microsoft.com/help/3087759/how-to-create-and-manage-the-central-store-for-group-policy-administra) if your company uses one or the PolicyDefinitions folder of the Domain Controllers used for Group Policy management.
This policy is available at **Computer Configuration** > **Administrative Templates** > **Control Panel** > **Settings Page Visibility**.
