Failed to open Group Policy object. You may not have the appropriate p

[deisehun]

When I try and open Admin tools/Domain Controller Security Policy - I get " Failed to open Group Policy object. You may not have the appropriate permissions. Details - the system cannot find the path specified"

I ran policytest.exe on both DC's and it passed - I have the correct permissions to run Admin tools/Domain Controller Security Policy - but still get the error above.

I also manually checked that I have the permissions, in Group Policy

Any ideas?

Thanks..

I got a little further with this.

I had the "default domain controller policy" listed twice (under AD, right click on <Domain Controllers> <Properties> select register <Group Policy>. I backed up the second policy using Group Policy Mgt Console

I then opened "default domain controller policy" using the Group Policy Mgt Console - I selected 'Validate table' and got the following errors:
