While I am #software #dev saavy, am not a #ui / #ux pro.
But to my mind if you have a control, that one might normally expect to see somewhere, that can be disabled by some global or scoped restriction or in this case a #Windows #domain/group #policy... DONT HIDE THE FUCKING THING.
Show the button in the same place, but disabled. And if you mouse over if it says "Disabled by " or "Restricted by group policy ".

Or, you know, like if your star #ux person threatens to quit or the PM has a stick up their butt unless you "hide the controls that are inactive", then make it apparent that "we've hidden something here, click / hover to find out what" - I can think of half a dozen clever ways to do this.
