Use the Resultant Set of Policy Snap-in

  • Article

If you are a corporate administrator, once you have deployed the package that you created with the Windows® Internet Explorer® Customization Wizard 8, you can use the Resultant Set of Policy (RSoP) snap-in to view the policy settings that you created. If you make further changes using IEAK Profile Manager, you can also use RSoP to view these changes. For complete instructions for using RSoP, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=68958.

Using the RSoP snap-in is a two-step process. First, you run the Resultant Set of Policy wizard to indicate what information you want to view. Then, you open the items in the console window that contain the settings you want to view.

  1. Click Start, click Run, and then type mmc.

  2. Click File, and then click Add/Remove Snap-in.

  3. On the Standalone tab, click Add.

  4. Under Available Standalone Snap-ins, click Resultant Set of Policy, and then click Add.

To use Resultant Set of Policy to review Internet Explorer settings

    Note

    If this is the first time you have used this snap-in, you will be asked to run the Resultant Set of Policy Wizard first.
