Managing Shadow Copy with group policies

[Guest Alessandro]

Hello.

I am looking for a way to manage the Shadow Copy client by group policies.

For example, I'd like to disable (on XP clients) the 'Restore' button,

leaving only 'Open' and 'Copy'.

Because I don't want that a distract user overwrite a file with an older

version.

I have looked for similar options in the group policy but I haven't found

them.

Could someone help me please?

Thank you.

Note that group policy questions are best posted in

microsoft.public.windows.group_policy (however, this isn't necessarily a GP

issue)
