I would like to stop my users from viewing hidden files on the network.
Where would the option be in Group Policy for that?
 
It may not be in group policy directly.

Two approaches: build an ADM Administrative
Template file to create the correct registry entry
and setting.

Perform the option setting from a batch file but
since this one isn't available in the command
line directly either you would end up performing
a registry change (RegIni.exe or Reg.exe).

Either way you have find the setting in the registry.

But this setting is the default and only those users
with enough self-reliance to change the setting
will be viewing hidden files (I would be more
likely to turn ON viewing hidden files.)
