  • Artikel

I had this in my inbox for quite a while now but finally found the time to share this with you.

Group Policy preferences are made up of more than 20 new Group Policy client-side extensions (CSEs) that expand the range of configurable settings in a Group Policy object (GPO). These new preferences are included in the Group Policy Management Editor window of the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC). The extensions are listed under each new preference item. Examples of the new Group Policy preference extensions include the following:

  • Folder options
  • Mapped drives
  • Printers
  • Scheduled tasks
  • Services
  • Start menu settings

The GP Preferences are great to help you get rid of the huge logon scripts and let you even write registry keys or set default printers and so much more here' a list of the ability GP:
