Now there is workaround available to resolve this issue, as suggested on multiple forums we have to add following registry entries on client systems and as of now there is no hotfix available, as per those forum MS already confirmed. Issue : GPO not applying on Windows 10 machines. Until now the only Workaround is to disable the UNC hardening for netlogon and sysvol Shares in the registry. Today will be sharing details that you have applied Group policy but due to any reason you are not getting result. The updates are described by the PFE team here.īut why is it working on Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 and NOT on Windows 10?įirst of all UNC Hardening is standard disabled in Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 and enabled in Windows 10!įurthermore Microsoft Support confirmed that there is a bug in Windows 10 and they will provide a hotfix one day they have fixed it. And the NETLOGON and SYSVOL folders are network shares. Well actually they harden the Kerberos authentication to Network Shares. Group policy not applying on windows 10 machines i have 2008R2 server environment in our office every think was working fine in windows 7 ,8 and 8. In this scenario, some Group Policy preferences are not applied successfully. These Group Policy preferences are applied to the computers. You configure some Group Policy preferences in a domain.
I did a little search and it seems that Microsoft has pushed 2 updates ( MS15-011 and MS15-014) that harden the Group Policy process. You have some computers that are running Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7.
I was working with Windows 10 (1511 version), fully patched the client and to my surprise on some Windows 10 machines the Group Policy Objects (GPO) were not applied.
