Hi Readers,
Today I am sharing a TIP on how to show Appear Offline Status on Lync Client:
On the machine where Lync Client is installed, open registry editor
1. Run Regedt32
2. Go to Path “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Communicator”
3. Create a Dword EnableAppearOffline
4. Set the Decimal Value to 1.
Now When you can relaunch Lync & you will see the Appear Offline status in status list :)

Does not work for Lync 2013. There you need
Reg Add “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync” /V “EnableAppearOffline” /D 1 /T REG_DWORD /F

Hello,
Firstly, my thanks to the writer of this piece. It helps – for me it needs a little tweaking though. I have same issue as coolboy. Tried the solution given by Alginald but did not work for me. As a workaround, I CREATED the missing sub-keys which in this case are ….\Office\15.0\Lync then add the dword. Restart Lync and there it is ! :-)
See above comment, if that resolves your issue.
it works, Thanks for the tweaking tips mr Sardin
