Installing the updated Group Policy settings

To install the updated Group Policy settings, follow the procedures in the topic Use Group Policy to enforce Office 2010 settings. If you have previously configured any of the Group Policy settings that are affected by this update, you must set those policy settings to their Not Configured state before you remove the previous Office 2010 ADM files and load the updated ADM files. This removes the registry key information for the policy setting from the registry. If you do not do this, the policy settings that are configured from the .adm file will remain in the Registry.pol file and continue to apply to the target client or user.

To obtain information about the policy settings that are currently in effect for the Group Policy object (GPO) that is linked to the domain or organizational unit that contains a specific computer or user, you can use Group Policy Results in Group Policy Management Console. To access Group Policy Results data for a user or computer, you must have Read Group Policy Results data permission on the domain or organizational unit that contains the user or computer, or you must be a member of the Administrators group on the targeted local computer.

For more information about how to report by using Group Policy Results, see “Using Group Policy Results to determine Resultant Set of Policy” in Group Policy Planning and Deployment Guide (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=182208).

Preventing conflicts with earlier versions of Group Policy settings

Note

This section applies only to Group Policy, and not the OCT.

Policy setting information for Office 2010 is stored in version-specific locations in the Windows registry, as shown in the following table.

Type of setting 2010 subkey

User-specific policy settings

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0

Computer-specific policy settings

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0

Similarly, policy setting information for the 2007 Office system is stored in version-specific locations in the Windows registry, as shown in the following table.

Type of setting 2007 subkey

User-specific policy settings

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\12.0

Computer-specific policy settings

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\12.0

There are several policy settings for Office 2010 that are not stored in one of the version-specific registry subkeys. For these policy settings, if you had previously configured the 2007 Office system (or earlier) versions, you must set those policy settings to their Not Configured state before you remove the previous 2007 Office system ADM or ADMX files and load the Office 2010 ADM or ADMX files. This removes the registry key information for the policy setting from the registry. This occurs because if an .adm or .admx file is removed, the settings that correspond to the .adm or .admx file do not appear in Group Policy Object Editor. However, the policy settings that are configured from the .adm or .admx file remain in the Registry.pol file and continue to apply to the appropriate target client or user.

Updating the OCT

To update the OCT, replace the /Admin folder in your Office 2010 installation files or installation image with the new /Admin folder that is included in the download package.

AdminTemplates.exe

        \ADMX: The ADMX folder contains XML-based versions (.admx or .adml files) of the Administrative Template files for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 or later versions of Windows. Administrative Template files in Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista or later versions of Windows are divided into ADMX (language-neutral) and ADML (language-specific) files. By default, the %systemroot%\PolicyDefinitions folder on a local computer stores all ADMX files. ADML files are stored in language-specific folders under the %systemroot%\PolicyDefinitions folder. Each language subfolder contains the .adml files for that language; for example, the English language ADML files would be stored in the %systemroot%\PolicyDefinitions\en-us folder. Languages included are Chinese Simplified (People’s Republic of China), Chinese (Hong Kong SAR), English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish.
