This is an enterprise feature, related to #12537 and another issue.
Besides, it seems like this issue is related to GPO controlling PT modules and lock PT controls, Do you have any other suggestions?

For organizing all suggestions related to GPO:

• Restrict access to PT config for each module (Enable ability to restrict what can be enabled #12951)
• Enforce disable (enable) each PT module (Enable ability to restrict what can be enabled #12951, PowerToys - Completely Disable Awake option #12537)

PT is a great collection of small tools.
Features like Keyboard-Manager, Awake or Powertoys Run are not necessary for Normal Users but can sometimes lead users to "play" when shown in the program.

@JeffJerousek what i've seen people do is make the setting.json readonly and forced down to user :)

How do you currently do this with any 3rd party software?
