Open your registry and find the key below.

Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value called ‘NoHelp’ set the value to equal ‘1’ to enable the restriction.

Exit your registry, you may need to restart for the changes to take effect.

You entries should look like:

	(Default)	(value not set)
	NoHelp	0x00000001 (1)
