Bravo uses registry settings to store company policies, configuration related to the setup, and advanced settings not exposed in the user interface.
Attributes that use a REG_DWORD type for a boolean 0/1 have the same behavior of 1 for any values that is not 0. In other words, 0 is False and any other number is True.
