    If Group Policy Settings Apply Inconsistently


    Check for:

    • Preferences versus policies.

    • Asynchronous processing.

    Are you using IPSec or User Rights policies?

    Preferences Versus Policies


    Registry policy or Administrative Templates take the form of policies (registry entries under the special keys) or preferences (registry keys anywhere else). Administrative Templates files are used to apply policies or preferences.

    It is recommended to use policies rather than preferences:



    • Policies don’t “tattoo.” Using a GPO to deploy policies and preferences, when the GPO is removed, the policies will be removed, but the preferences will remain. This process is known as “tattooing.”

    • Preferences do not get refreshed unless the GPO changes. Users can change their preferences, and they will not be restored until Group Policy changes and the GPOs are reapplied. Policies on the other hand are ACL’d in the registry, so that users cannot change them.

    If you must use preferences, preferences must be added via the .adm file. By default, if nothing changes at the GPO, nothing gets applied to the client computer (assuming the client has received policy in the past).

    Note: Policies are stored under HKLM (for computer policy) or HKCU (for user policy).

    \Software\Policies (preferred location)

    \Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies
