Deactivate OpenOffice Basic macros and VBS scripts

[Jam09]

Hello everyone,
I am currently working on deactivating the execution and editing of macros and VBS scripts system-wide on our terminal server farm.
So far I have tried the following:

1) In the soffice.ini under “*\Programs\OpenOffice\program\soffice.ini” to add the following block:

Code: Select all

[Security]
VbscriptingEnabled=false
JavascriptingEnabled=false
PythonscriptingEnabled=false
ScriptProtectionMode=true
BeansEnabled=false

2) In OpenOffice itself “Tools > Options > Security > Macrosecurity > Very high”.

However, it is still possible for me to go to Tools > Macros > Manage macros ... > OpenOffice Basic ... to write and execute scripts.

I have also noticed that the setting under “Macrossecurity” can be changed independently by each user.

Is there a way to deactivate this editing and execution machine-wide?

We use OpenOffice 4.1.15 and Microsoft Server 2016 / 2019.

2) In OpenOffice itself “Tools > Options > Security > Macrosecurity > Very high”.

This option is for disable running the macros located in the document, called from the document.

Why you want restrict the rights of the actual User?

Maybe it is simplier to choose an another application for write texts, or calculate tables what have NOT macro feature...
