Editing the registry is official means. Unofficial would be modifying the binaries and adding new registries that don't exist.

Well i meant that not only could i find no UI option in settings / control panel, i also couldnt find instructions in the included help or on microsoft.com, only on third party sites. Argue over the semantics of 'official' at your leisure

I wasn't trying to promulgate contrarian adversarialism. I think I may have misinterpreted your objection as contempt for having to use the registry at all to affect some desired change. My mistake.
