Hi Joe Caisley,

 

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

 

You need to add the ADMX file related to the two policy settings you mentioned to C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitionsfolder and ADML file related to the two policy settings you mentioned to C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions\en-US folder.

 

The Administrative Templates GPO need to be downloaded and store in right path.

 

You can check the download update by below link:
