Using Windows 7 embedded and looking to change the below group policies via the Registry so I can get a script put together. If anyone is aware to possibly find these entries would be greatly appreciated because I'm having a little hard time finding them.
Enable screen saver - Enabled
Password Protect the screen saver - Enabled
Screen saver timeout - Enabled
Number of seconds to wait to enable the screen saver - 900

The most easiest way is to use Process Monitor with following filters:
Processname = mmc.exe
Operation = RegSetValueRegards

Use a small tool to record the changes. (I used RegFromApp, only the changes from the chosen application are recorded)
Open the group policies (gpedit) and start the record tooling (choose the right application), now all changes displayed in the tooling and can used in your script.
Best Regards
