When specifying particular exclusions or inclusions for users accessibility to Control Panel via GPO for Windows 7 builds. This as per the table below, is different to the older format for specification of applets, as now you use the Canonical Name of the applet instead of the .cpl file name in XP builds.
Please see this list for the applets that can be excluded or included from view via GPO.
