Hey everyone,
Here is an interesting question that I need to know the answer to (Win2003 SP1 AD):
Say you enable a policy setting by checking the box DEFINE and then you define something:
The policy applies (with gpupdate.exe) and all is happy. Then at some later time in the future
you decide that the policy no longer needs to exist and you uncheck the DEFINE box:
From this point on, no matter what you do, the settings that were installed in the
past still apply and there is no way to get rid of them. The fact that the DEFINE
check pox is now UNCHECKED does not work.
Sure the policy does show as NOT DEFINED:
But the settings that WERE DEFINED AT SOME POINT IN THE PAST
still apply? Remember, this requires specific answer, not philosophical expansion!
What gives?
