Policy CSP - ADMX_GroupPolicy

Artikel
08/08/2024

Tip

This CSP contains ADMX-backed policies which require a special SyncML format to enable or disable. You must specify the data type in the SyncML as <Format>chr</Format>. For details, see Understanding ADMX-backed policies.

The payload of the SyncML must be XML-encoded; for this XML encoding, there are a variety of online encoders that you can use. To avoid encoding the payload, you can use CDATA if your MDM supports it. For more information, see CDATA Sections.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_GroupPolicy/AllowX-ForestPolicy-and-RUP

This policy setting allows user-based policy processing, roaming user profiles, and user object logon scripts for interactive logons across forests.

This policy setting affects all user accounts that interactively log on to a computer in a different forest when a trust across forests or a two-way forest trust exists.

If you don't configure this policy setting:
No user-based policy settings are applied from the user's forest.
Users don't receive their roaming profiles; they receive a local profile on the computer from the local forest. A warning message appears to the user, and an event log message (1529) is posted.
Loopback Group Policy processing is applied, using the Group Policy Objects (GPOs) that are scoped to the computer.
An event log message (1109) is posted, stating that loopback was invoked in Replace mode.
If you enable this policy setting, the behavior is exactly the same as in Windows 2000: user policy is applied, and a roaming user profile is allowed from the trusted forest.
If you disable this policy setting, the behavior is the same as if it isn't configured.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_GroupPolicy/CorpConnSyncWaitTime

This policy setting specifies how long Group Policy should wait for workplace connectivity notifications during startup policy processing. If the startup policy processing is synchronous, the computer is blocked until workplace connectivity is available or the wait time is reached. If the startup policy processing is asynchronous, the computer isn't blocked and policy processing will occur in the background. In either case, configuring this policy setting overrides any system-computed wait times.

If you enable this policy setting, Group Policy uses this administratively configured maximum wait time for workplace connectivity, and overrides any default or system-computed wait time.
If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, Group Policy will use the default wait time of 60 seconds on computers running Windows operating systems greater than Windows 7 configured for workplace connectivity.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_GroupPolicy/CSE_AppMgmt

This policy setting determines when software installation policies are updated.

This policy setting affects all policy settings that use the software installation component of Group Policy, such as policy settings in Software Settings\Software Installation. You can set software installation policy only for Group Policy Objects stored in Active Directory, not for Group Policy Objects on the local computer.

This policy setting overrides customized settings that the program implementing the software installation policy set when it was installed.

If you enable this policy setting, you can use the check boxes provided to change the options.
If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, it has no effect on the system.

The "Allow processing across a slow network connection" option updates the policies even when the update is being transmitted across a slow network connection, such as a telephone line. Updates across slow connections can cause significant delays.

The "Process even if the Group Policy objects haven't changed" option updates and reapplies the policies even if the policies haven't changed. Many policy setting implementations specify that they're updated only when changed. However, you might want to update unchanged policy settings, such as reapplying a desired policies in case a user has changed it.

Prevents the system from updating the Administrative Templates source files automatically when you open the Group Policy Object Editor. Administrators might want to use this if they're concerned about the amount of space used on the system volume of a DC.

By default, when you start the Group Policy Object Editor, a timestamp comparison is performed on the source files in the local %SYSTEMROOT%\inf directory and the source files stored in the GPO. If the local files are newer, they're copied into the GPO.

Changing the status of this setting to Enabled will keep any source files from copying to the GPO.

Changing the status of this setting to Disabled will enforce the default behavior. Files will always be copied to the GPO if they've a later timestamp.

Note

If the Computer Configuration policy setting, "Always use local ADM files for the Group Policy Object Editor" is enabled, the state of this setting is ignored and always treated as Enabled.

This policy setting prevents Local Group Policy Objects (Local GPOs) from being applied.

By default, the policy settings in Local GPOs are applied before any domain-based GPO policy settings. These policy settings can apply to both users and the local computer. You can disable the processing and application of all Local GPOs to ensure that only domain-based GPOs are applied.

If you enable this policy setting, the system doesn't process and apply any Local GPOs.
If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, Local GPOs continue to be applied.

Note

For computers joined to a domain, it's strongly recommended that you only configure this policy setting in domain-based GPOs. This policy setting will be ignored on computers that are joined to a workgroup.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_GroupPolicy/EnableLogonOptimization

This policy setting allows you to configure Group Policy caching behavior.

If you enable or don't configure this policy setting, Group Policy caches policy information after every background processing session. This cache saves applicable GPOs and the settings contained within them. When Group Policy runs in synchronous foreground mode, it refers to this cache, which enables it to run faster. When the cache is read, Group Policy attempts to contact a logon domain controller to determine the link speed. When Group Policy runs in background mode or asynchronous foreground mode, it continues to download the latest version of the policy information, and it uses a bandwidth estimate to determine slow link thresholds. (See the "Configure Group Policy Slow Link Detection" policy setting to configure asynchronous foreground behavior).

The slow link value that's defined in this policy setting determines how long Group Policy will wait for a response from the domain controller before reporting the link speed as slow. The default is 500 milliseconds.

The timeout value that's defined in this policy setting determines how long Group Policy will wait for a response from the domain controller before determining that there is no network connectivity. This stops the current Group Policy processing. Group Policy will run in the background the next time a connection to a domain controller is established. Setting this value too high might result in longer waits for the user at boot or logon. The default is 5000 milliseconds.

If you disable this policy setting, the Group Policy client won't cache applicable GPOs or settings that are contained within the GPOs. When Group Policy runs synchronously, it downloads the latest version of the policy from the network and uses bandwidth estimates to determine slow link thresholds. (See the "Configure Group Policy Slow Link Detection" policy setting to configure asynchronous foreground behavior).

This policy setting prevents administrators from viewing or using Group Policy preferences.

A Group Policy administration (.adm) file can contain both true settings and preferences. True settings, which are fully supported by Group Policy, must use registry entries in the Software\Policies or Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies registry subkeys. Preferences, which aren't fully supported, use registry entries in other subkeys.

If you enable this policy setting, the "Show Policies Only" command is turned on, and administrators can't turn it off. As a result, Group Policy Object Editor displays only true settings; preferences don't appear.
If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, the "Show Policies Only" command is turned on by default, but administrators can view preferences by turning off the "Show Policies Only" command.

Note

To find the "Show Policies Only" command, in Group Policy Object Editor, click the Administrative Templates folder (either one), right-click the same folder, and then point to "View".

In Group Policy Object Editor, preferences have a red icon to distinguish them from true settings, which have a blue icon.

This policy setting defines a slow connection for purposes of applying and updating Group Policy.

If the rate at which data is transferred from the domain controller providing a policy update to the computers in this group is slower than the rate specified by this setting, the system considers the connection to be slow.

The system's response to a slow policy connection varies among policies. The program implementing the policy can specify the response to a slow link. Also, the policy processing settings in this folder lets you override the programs' specified responses to slow links.

If you enable this setting, you can, in the "Connection speed" box, type a decimal number between 0 and 4,294,967,200, indicating a transfer rate in kilobits per second. Any connection slower than this rate is considered to be slow. If you type 0, all connections are considered to be fast.
If you disable this setting or don't configure it, the system uses the default value of 500 kilobits per second.

This setting appears in the Computer Configuration and User Configuration folders. The setting in Computer Configuration defines a slow link for policies in the Computer Configuration folder. The setting in User Configuration defines a slow link for settings in the User Configuration folder.

Also, see the "Do not detect slow network connections" and related policies in Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\User Profile.

Note

If the profile server has IP connectivity, the connection speed setting is used. If the profile server doesn't have IP connectivity, the SMB timing is used.

By default, computer Group Policy is updated in the background every 90 minutes, with a random offset of 0 to 30 minutes.

If you enable this setting, you can specify an update rate from 0 to 64,800 minutes (45 days). If you select 0 minutes, the computer tries to update Group Policy every 7 seconds. However, because updates might interfere with users' work and increase network traffic, very short update intervals aren't appropriate for most installations.
If you disable this setting, Group Policy is updated every 90 minutes (the default). To specify that Group Policy should never be updated while the computer is in use, select the "Turn off background refresh of Group Policy" policy.

The Set Group Policy refresh interval for computers policy also lets you specify how much the actual update interval varies. To prevent clients with the same update interval from requesting updates simultaneously, the system varies the update interval for each client by a random number of minutes. The number you type in the random time box sets the upper limit for the range of variance. For example, if you type 30 minutes, the system selects a variance of 0 to 30 minutes. Typing a large number establishes a broad range and makes it less likely that client requests overlap. However, updates might be delayed significantly.

This setting establishes the update rate for computer Group Policy. To set an update rate for user policies, use the "Set Group Policy refresh interval for users" setting (located in User Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Group Policy).

This setting is only used when the "Turn off background refresh of Group Policy" setting isn't enabled.

Note

Consider notifying users that their policy is updated periodically so that they recognize the signs of a policy update. When Group Policy is updated, the Windows desktop is refreshed; it flickers briefly and closes open menus. Also, restrictions imposed by Group Policies, such as those that limit the programs users can run, might interfere with tasks in progress.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_GroupPolicy/GroupPolicyRefreshRateDC

This policy setting specifies how often Group Policy is updated on domain controllers while they're running (in the background). The updates specified by this setting occur in addition to updates performed when the system starts.

By default, Group Policy on the domain controllers is updated every five minutes.

If you enable this setting, you can specify an update rate from 0 to 64,800 minutes (45 days). If you select 0 minutes, the domain controller tries to update Group Policy every 7 seconds. However, because updates might interfere with users' work and increase network traffic, very short update intervals aren't appropriate for most installations.
If you disable or don't configure this setting, the domain controller updates Group Policy every 5 minutes (the default). To specify that Group Policies for users should never be updated while the computer is in use, select the "Turn off background refresh of Group Policy" setting.

This setting also lets you specify how much the actual update interval varies. To prevent domain controllers with the same update interval from requesting updates simultaneously, the system varies the update interval for each controller by a random number of minutes. The number you type in the random time box sets the upper limit for the range of variance. For example, if you type 30 minutes, the system selects a variance of 0 to 30 minutes. Typing a large number establishes a broad range and makes it less likely that update requests overlap. However, updates might be delayed significantly.

Note

This setting is used only when you are establishing policy for a domain, site, organizational unit (OU), or customized group. If you are establishing policy for a local computer only, the system ignores this setting.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_GroupPolicy/OnlyUseLocalAdminFiles

This policy setting lets you always use local ADM files for the Group Policy snap-in.

By default, when you edit a Group Policy Object (GPO) using the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in, the ADM files are loaded from that GPO into the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in. This allows you to use the same version of the ADM files that were used to create the GPO while editing this GPO.

This leads to the following behavior:

If you originally created the GPO with, for example, an English system, the GPO contains English ADM files.
If you later edit the GPO from a different-language system, you get the English ADM files as they were in the GPO.

You can change this behavior by using this setting.

If you enable this setting, the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in always uses local ADM files in your %windir%\inf directory when editing GPOs.

This leads to the following behavior:

If you had originally created the GPO with an English system, and then you edit the GPO with a Japanese system, the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in uses the local Japanese ADM files, and you see the text in Japanese under Administrative Templates.
If you disable or don't configure this setting, the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in always loads all ADM files from the actual GPO.

Note

If the ADMs that you require aren't all available locally in your %windir%\inf directory, you might not be able to see all the settings that have been configured in the GPO that you are editing.

This security feature provides a means to override individual process MitigationOptions settings. This can be used to enforce a number of security policies specific to applications. The application name is specified as the Value name, including extension. The Value is specified as a bit field with a series of flags in particular positions. Bits can be set to either 0 (setting is forced off), 1 (setting is forced on), or ? (setting retains its existing value prior to GPO evaluation). The recognized bit locations are:

PROCESS_CREATION_MITIGATION_POLICY_DEP_ENABLE (0x00000001) Enables data execution prevention (DEP) for the child process.

PROCESS_CREATION_MITIGATION_POLICY_DEP_ATL_THUNK_ENABLE (0x00000002) Enables DEP-ATL thunk emulation for the child process. DEP-ATL thunk emulation causes the system to intercept NX faults that originate from the Active Template Library (ATL) thunk layer.

PROCESS_CREATION_MITIGATION_POLICY_SEHOP_ENABLE (0x00000004) Enables structured exception handler overwrite protection (SEHOP) for the child process. SEHOP blocks exploits that use the structured exception handler (SEH) overwrite technique.

PROCESS_CREATION_MITIGATION_POLICY_FORCE_RELOCATE_IMAGES_ALWAYS_ON (0x00000100) The force Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) policy forcibly rebases images that aren't dynamic base compatible by acting as though an image base collision happened at load time. If relocations are required, images that don't have a base relocation section won't be loaded.

PROCESS_CREATION_MITIGATION_POLICY_BOTTOM_UP_ASLR_ALWAYS_ON (0x00010000) PROCESS_CREATION_MITIGATION_POLICY_BOTTOM_UP_ASLR_ALWAYS_OFF (0x00020000) The bottom-up randomization policy, which includes stack randomization options, causes a random location to be used as the lowest user address.

For instance, to enable PROCESS_CREATION_MITIGATION_POLICY_DEP_ENABLE and PROCESS_CREATION_MITIGATION_POLICY_FORCE_RELOCATE_IMAGES_ALWAYS_ON, disable PROCESS_CREATION_MITIGATION_POLICY_BOTTOM_UP_ASLR_ALWAYS_OFF, and to leave all other options at their default values, specify a value of:

???????????????0???????1???????1

Setting flags not specified here to any value other than ? results in undefined behavior.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_GroupPolicy/SlowLinkDefaultForDirectAccess

This policy setting allows an administrator to define the Direct Access connection to be considered a fast network connection for the purposes of applying and updating Group Policy.

When Group Policy detects the bandwidth speed of a Direct Access connection, the detection can sometimes fail to provide any bandwidth speed information. If Group Policy detects a bandwidth speed, Group Policy will follow the normal rules for evaluating if the Direct Access connection is a fast or slow network connection. If no bandwidth speed is detected, Group Policy will default to a slow network connection. This policy setting allows the administrator the option to override the default to slow network connection and instead default to using a fast network connection in the case that no network bandwidth speed is determined.

Note

When Group Policy detects a slow network connection, Group Policy will only process those client side extensions configured for processing across a slow link (slow network connection).

If you enable this policy, when Group Policy can't determine the bandwidth speed across Direct Access, Group Policy will evaluate the network connection as a fast link and process all client side extensions.
If you disable this setting or don't configure it, Group Policy will evaluate the network connection as a slow link and process only those client side extensions configured to process over a slow link.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_GroupPolicy/SlowlinkDefaultToAsync

This policy directs Group Policy processing to skip processing any client side extension that requires synchronous processing (that is, whether computers wait for the network to be fully initialized during computer startup and user logon) when a slow network connection is detected.

If you enable this policy setting, when a slow network connection is detected, Group Policy processing will always run in an asynchronous manner.

Client computers won't wait for the network to be fully initialized at startup and logon. Existing users will be logged-on using cached credentials, which will result in shorter logon times. Group Policy will be applied in the background after the network becomes available.

Note that because this is a background refresh, extensions requiring synchronous processing such as Software Installation, Folder Redirection and Drive Maps preference extension won't be applied.

Note There are two conditions that will cause Group Policy to be processed synchronously even if this policy setting is enabled:

1 - At the first computer startup after the client computer has joined the domain.

2 - If the policy setting "Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon" is enabled.

If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, detecting a slow network connection won't affect whether Group Policy processing will be synchronous or asynchronous.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_GroupPolicy/SyncWaitTime

This policy setting specifies how long Group Policy should wait for network availability notifications during startup policy processing. If the startup policy processing is synchronous, the computer is blocked until the network is available or the default wait time is reached. If the startup policy processing is asynchronous, the computer isn't blocked and policy processing will occur in the background. In either case, configuring this policy setting overrides any system-computed wait times.

If you enable this policy setting, Group Policy will use this administratively configured maximum wait time and override any default or system-computed wait time.
If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, Group Policy will use the default wait time of 30 seconds on computers running Windows Vista operating system.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_GroupPolicy/UserPolicyMode

This policy setting directs the system to apply the set of Group Policy objects for the computer to any user who logs on to a computer affected by this setting. It's intended for special-use computers, such as those in public places, laboratories, and classrooms, where you must modify the user setting based on the computer that's being used.

By default, the user's Group Policy Objects determine which user settings apply.

If this setting is enabled, then, when a user logs on to this computer, the computer's Group Policy Objects determine which set of Group Policy Objects applies.
If you enable this setting, you can select one of the following modes from the Mode box:

"Replace" indicates that the user settings defined in the computer's Group Policy Objects replace the user settings normally applied to the user.

"Merge" indicates that the user settings defined in the computer's Group Policy Objects and the user settings normally applied to the user are combined. If the settings conflict, the user settings in the computer's Group Policy Objects take precedence over the user's normal settings.

If you disable this setting or don't configure it, the user's Group Policy Objects determines which user settings apply.

Note

This setting is effective only when both the computer account and the user account are in at least Windows 2000 domains.
