Where is the Group Policy CSE data stored?

Hi all,

         Once of my colleagues asked me which Group Policy Client Side extensions (CSEs) get their Setting data in the Active Directory Group Policy Container (GPC) rather than SYSVOL's Group Policy Template (GPT).  From my research into the inner workings of Group Policies, the CSEs that I have found are as follows:

802.1X Authenticated Wired and Wireless Access
IPSec

WLan Svc

To complicate matters slightly, there are two CSEs that store their data in both the GPT and the GPC

Printer Connections

Software Installation

All of the other CSEs have their data stored in SYSVOL's Group Policy Templates (GPT) folders.

I hope this helps someone else :)

Kindest Regards

Mark
