Can we hide the option to create a traditional folder?

You can hide the Create command via Advanced Vault Settings > Client > Desktop > Traditional Folders:

If you want to test this first on a single computer, this is the registry setting that the above AVS option distributes to the clients:

Registry Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Motive\M-Files\<version>\Client\MFShell\<vault>\TraditionalFolders
Value name: HideTraditionalFolders
Value type: REG_DWORD (DWORD 32-bit Value)
Value data: - 0 (default) or other: feature disabled
- 1: Hide "New Traditional Folder" command in the context and alt menus to prevent the creation of new traditional folders.
- 2: Hide "New Traditional Folder" command in the menus AND hide existing traditional folders in Browse listing.

These settings are not in
