• Changed group policy settings but now Windows is to appear this message to restart again!

  I currently have windows 7 Professional 64 and I changed the settings of group policy to stop this annoying nagging screen pop to the top telling me to restart the computer after an update, but recently he has returned once again, and I made no changes to my group policy settings. Is now without taking into account this Microsoft Group Policy setting and not to say that the only way to avoid this is to disable windows update to install automatically?

  Please repost your question in this forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7security/threads

  Do you not understand that none of the bugs addressed by an update or security vulnerabilities do not take effect until you have restarted?

  You understand that there is other than automatic Automatic Updates settings and that one of these other settings allow you to choose once downloaded updates to update are installed (i.e., so that you will not install an update unless & until you are able to restart)? ~ Robear Dyer (PA Bear) ~ MS MVP (that is to say, mail, security, Windows & Update Services) since 2002 ~ WARNING: MS MVPs represent or work for Microsoft

• Group Policy settings prevent put me the pc to sleep

  Hi, someone help with this?

  Previously, I had a Vista PC (as an Admin) I could adjust the monitor turns off after 30 min and get the PC to seelp after 60 min unattended. Whoosh! PC ignites (my fault)

  New pc refurbished, reinstall the old accounts Exchange etc, admin permissions, now group policy doesn't let me define powersaving & sleep options (it is grayed out).

  I am still an admin, but can not change the settings, someone help, suggestions? I have another pc on the network which behaves very well (but I never set fire to that) I have checked the settings and compared between the two, they seem the same, but the Group Policy settings have no sense. Any help gratefully received.

  Thank you

• Values of local group policy settings

  Hello

  I would like to ask what is the difference between "Not defined" and these policy settings that have been left "blank" under the columns of LocalGPO parameters. I noticed that next to "Not defined", there is also a "not configured", I can find out if the two means that the same thing or they are quite distinct meanings behind these two?

  I also had to make use of MMC Security configuration and analysis function, but I am confused as to why there are "not analyzed" appearing in the section computer settings when you set values has been set in the database setting column?

• Try to get the Group Policy settings to apply without the need to restart the system

  Original title: problem using Windows policies

  Hi all

  I work with Windows computer local policies to restrict access to usb storage, especially, I'm inside the GPO edit and I change the setting: Local computer--> model Administration--> system--> peripheral access removable--> all removable storage classes: deny all access
  (I have the Italian version, so may be, my translation is not perfect)

  My problem is this: I have to restart the computer to see the changes take place. I tried to run "GPUPDATE/force", but no way: the policy starts to not work after restarting the computer.
  Where I'm wrong?

  In Windows 7, everything works fine with GPUPDATE/force

  I am using Microsoft Windows VISTA Ultimate SP2 32 bit

  Thanks in advance

• Group Policy Editing - problem with settings in Windows XP

  Hello.. I connected to my laptop with the administrator account and open gpedit.msc (Group Policy Editor). I went to experience something I wanted. I went to the Configuration of the user-->---> system and active "run only allowed windows applications" administrative templates. I entered a program name in the box to showlist. Later as I pressed I keep the laptop without disabling this feature. After I connected again, but the system is not allowing to open any program from a program is listed under "run only allowed application. The message I get is this operation is canceled because of a restriction on this computer. Contact system administrator.

  I can't open gpedit.msc again to change my settings as the system starts same message. Kindly help me as soon as possible I'm unable to use my laptop.

  How to restore the setting above, since I am not able to open gpedit.msc also. Y at - it a solution to restore this setting in the group policy files.

  It's pretty funny!

  I've recreated here, and I think that you have a few options...

  Restart the system Mode without failure and you connect with the XP administrator account (not an account with administrator privileges - use the administrator account).  Then, you can run gpedit and undo the change, or as most policy settings are in the registry, you may cancel it.  In Safe Mode, you will need to press Ctrl-Alt-Delete to log on as an administrator or switch user for the administrator account.

  If you still can't get it, you might start on a third party CD that has a remote registry editor included (as Hiren) and change the registry on your computer and remove restrictions which is here:

  HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

  Delete the entry "RestrictRun"...

  Hi Calvin,

  Welcome to the Microsoft community.

  According to the description, you cannot share the computer with your partner that you are facing problems with Group Policy client. Am I wrong?

  1 did you changes to the computer before the show?

  2. do you get an error message/code?

  Group Policy in part controls what users can or not do on a computer system, for example: a policy of complexity of password which prevents users to choose a password that is too simple, to allow or prevent users not identified from remote computers to connect to a network share, to block access to the Windows Task Manager or to restrict access to certain folders.

• How to change group policy for the system restore will create restore point

  I recently installed an SSD with windows 7, it's the default OS and hard drive on a system dual boot. I also have my old HHD with windows vista home premium. I had problems using the restore of the system with the SSD drive and read on a forum that the restoration of the system causes problems when it is used on an SSD. I have disable restoring the system to the SSD, but still he had checked to allow restoration on the vista disk and a 500 GB drive, I have use for storage.

  I managed to create a restore point when you are using windows 7 OS, but when I used my vista drive, and wanted to create additional restore points for two HHD disks, it does not allow the creation of restore points by group policy settings. I regularly create restore for the SSD disk and have created one for the HHD Vista since the system restore does not create additional restore points now.

  How can I change my group policy settings to enable restore points to create the disk under Vista. I don't remember changing anything that might have caused it, is there a chance that a horse of Trojan or virus caused this? I have Webroot antivirus and currently aired Kaspersky Anti-virus on Vista drive. I also ran the Microsoft safety scanner in safe mode and normal startup mode, none of the virus scanners have found problems, so I'm pretty sure I don't have a Trojan or a virus.

  To the point, how to make appropriate changes to allow the restoration of the system to work for my two HHD disks.  Better yet is there a way to restore completely all original windows default system settings without having to do a clean reinstall.

  You can provide any help would be greatly appreciated

  Thank you
