It's set into registry key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop in value named "UserPreferencesMask" , the detailed description is available here, see the Bit 5's description, it's for Keyboard cues.

Usually such settings are stored in registry, if you use regmon to watch registry changes done by rundll32.exe (this exe launches the disply properties) then you can easily find out which key,values are used.
