depending on the version of Windows you have, look into the group policy settings. you can run the GPO editor by start>run>gpedit.msc.

Google search group policy windows appearance registry. should bring up something of use to you.

that is what i am talking about. if you want to use a batch file, you need to create a registry modification. to create a registry modification, you are probably best using the Goup Policy Objects that govern those changes. Find the GPO you want to modify, locate the registry change and create your batch file. In reality, you don't need a batch file. Open notepad, put in the registry key entries with the changes you want to see and save the file as .reg. once you double click on the XXXXX.reg file, it will ask to approve the registry changes and add them accordingly.

Ok! Do you have some tool to detect and locate all change in regedit when modify GPO

google.com

search for the attribute you want to change and it's relevant registry key.
