Settings/PageVisibilityList

Edition Windows 10 Windows 11
Home No No
Pro Yes Yes
Windows SE No Yes
Business Yes Yes
Enterprise Yes Yes
Education Yes Yes

Scope:

[!div class = "checklist"]

  • User
  • Device

Allows IT Admins to either:

  • Prevent specific pages in the System Settings app from being visible or accessible.

    OR

  • To do so for all pages except the pages you enter.

The mode will be specified by the policy string beginning with either the string showonly: or hide:. Pages are identified by a shortened version of their already published URIs, which is the URI minus the "ms-settings:" prefix.

For example, if the URI for a settings page is "ms-settings:bluetooth", the page identifier used in the policy will be just "bluetooth". Multiple page identifiers are separated by semicolons. For more information on the URI reference scheme used for the various pages of the System Settings app, see ms-settings: URI scheme reference.

The following example shows a policy that allows access only to the about and bluetooth pages, which have URI "ms-settings:about" and "ms-settings:bluetooth" respectively:

showonly:about;bluetooth

If the policy isn't specified, then the behavior is that no pages are affected. If the policy string is formatted incorrectly, then it's ignored (that is, treated as not set). It's ignored to prevent the machine from becoming unserviceable, if data corruption occurs. If a page is already hidden for another reason, then it stays hidden, even if the page is in a showonly: list.

The format of the PageVisibilityList value is as follows:

  • The value is a unicode string up to 10,000 characters long, which will be used without case sensitivity.
  • There are two variants: one that shows only the given pages and one that hides the given pages.
  • The first variant starts with the string showonly: and the second with the string "hide:".
  • Following the variant identifier is a semicolon-delimited list of page identifiers, which must not have any extra whitespace.
  • Each page identifier is the ms-settings:xyz URI for the page, minus the ms-settings: prefix. So the identifier for the page with the ms-settings:network-wifi URI would be network-wifi.

The default value for this setting is an empty string, which is interpreted as show everything.

Example 1: Only the wifi and bluetooth pages should be shown. They have URIs ms-settings:network-wifi and ms-settings:bluetooth. All other pages (and the categories they're in) will be hidden:

showonly:network-wifi;bluetooth

Example 2: The wifi page shouldn't be shown:

hide:network-wifi

ADMX Info:

  • GP Friendly name: Settings Page Visibility
  • GP name: SettingsPageVisibility
  • GP element: SettingsPageVisibilityBox
  • GP path: Control Panel
  • GP ADMX file name: ControlPanel.admx

To validate on Desktop, use the following steps:

  1. Open System Settings and verify that the About page is visible and accessible.
  2. Configure the policy with the following string: "hide:about".
  3. Open System Settings again and verify that the About page is no longer accessible.
