GPO for computer configuration not applying

Question

I setup a new GPO for control panel settings in computer configuration and link this GPO to the OU that contains my test computer. But, when I log in my test computer, nothing happens. The control panel settings are not applied. What should I do to make it work?

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

1,Please run the gpresult /h gp.html command on the client and check if the GPO has arrived to your test computer. Also refer to below article and check if related registry key is set on it.

Administrative Templates (Computers)

2,Also check the event viewer to see if there is any further information about GPO.

3,Do you use and security filter other than the default Authenticated Users?

4,For more troubleshooting steps, please refer to:

Thanks for your time. Have a nice day!

Best regards,

Simon
