HelpCustomized specifies whether the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customizes Help. The outcome depends on the operating system:
In Windows® 8, when you set this value to
trueand set values in Microsoft-Windows-HelpAndSupport\HelpAndSupport, you customize the Windows Help and Support page.For information about how to add customized Help files, see Author and Add Custom Help and Support Content.
In Windows 7 and Windows Vista®, when you set this value to true, Control Panel shows a link to customized Help. Otherwise, it shows the support information that SupportHours, SupportPhone, and SupportURL specify.
