The following instructions provide details how to configure your devices. Select the option that best suits your needs.

#### [:::image type="icon" source="../../images/icons/group-policy.svg" border="false"::: **GPO**](#tab/gpo)
To configure devices using Microsoft Intune, [import the Notepad administrative template (ADMX) files](/intune/intune-service/configuration/administrative-templates-import-custom#add-the-admx-and-adml-files) and then [create a custom **Configuration profile**](/intune/intune-service/configuration/administrative-templates-import-custom#create-a-profile-using-your-imported-files) based on the imported ADMX files.

> [!NOTE]
> The Notepad administrative template (ADMX) depends on the Windows administrative template (`C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions\Windows.admx`) file, so make sure you import it as well.

For machines within a corporate network, you can use Group Policy with Active Directory (AD) to deploy Notepad policies. Steps:
1. Download the latest [Notepad administrative template (ADMX)](#download-the-notepad-administrative-template-admx).
2. On your domain controllers, copy and paste the following files to the relevant location, depending if you store Group Policy templates in the local `PolicyDefinitions` folder or the [Group Policy Central Store](/troubleshoot/windows-client/group-policy/create-and-manage-central-store). Replace `contoso.com` with your domain name, and `en-US` if you're using a different language.
- **Filename**: `WindowsNotepad.admx`
- **Local location**: `C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions\`
- **Central Store**: `\\contoso.com\SYSVOL\contoso.com\Policies\PolicyDefinitions`
- **Filename**: `en-US\WindowsNotepad.adml`
- **Local location**: `C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions\en-US\`
- **Central Store**: `\\contoso.com\SYSVOL\contoso.com\Policies\PolicyDefinitions\en-US`
3. On a device you use to manage Group Policy, open the **Group Policy Management Console (GPMC)** and create or edit a policy that targets your devices.
4. To verify that the Notepad administrative template is available, browse to **Computer Configuration** > **Policies** > **Administrative Templates** > **Windows Components** > **Notepad** . You should see policy settings for Notepad available for you to configure.

To disable AI features in Notepad, set the `DisableAIFeatures` registry value to `1` under `HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\WindowsNotepad`.
