Policy CSP - ADMX_Logon
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.

This policy setting ignores the customized run list.
You can create a customized list of additional programs and documents that the system starts automatically when it runs on Windows Vista, Windows XP Professional, and Windows 2000 Professional. These programs are added to the standard run list of programs and services that the system starts.
If you enable this policy setting, the system ignores the run list for Windows Vista, Windows XP Professional, and Windows 2000 Professional.
If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, Windows Vista adds any customized run list configured to its run list.
This policy setting appears in the Computer Configuration and User Configuration folders. If both policy settings are configured, the policy setting in Computer Configuration takes precedence over the policy setting in User Configuration.
Note
To create a customized run list by using a policy setting, use the "Run these applications at startup" policy setting.
Also, see the "Do not process the run once list" policy setting.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_Logon/SyncForegroundPolicy
This policy setting determines whether Group Policy processing is synchronous (that is, whether computers wait for the network to be fully initialized during computer startup and user logon). By default, on client computers, Group Policy processing isn't synchronous; client computers typically don't wait for the network to be fully initialized at startup and logon. Existing users are logged-on using cached credentials, which results in shorter logon times. Group Policy is applied in the background after the network becomes available.
Note that because this is a background refresh, extensions such as Software Installation and Folder Redirection take two logons to apply changes. To be able to operate safely, these extensions require that no users be logged on. Therefore, they must be processed in the foreground before users are actively using the computer. In addition, changes that are made to the user object, such as adding a roaming profile path, home directory, or user object logon script, may take up to two logons to be detected.
If a user with a roaming profile, home directory, or user object logon script logs on to a computer, computers always wait for the network to be initialized before logging the user on. If a user has never logged-on to this computer before, computers always wait for the network to be initialized.
- If you enable this policy setting, computers wait for the network to be fully initialized before users are logged on. Group Policy is applied in the foreground, synchronously.
On servers running Windows Server 2008 or later, this policy setting is ignored during Group Policy processing at computer startup and Group Policy processing will be synchronous (these servers wait for the network to be initialized during computer startup).
If the server is configured as follows, this policy setting takes effect during Group Policy processing at user logon:
- The server is configured as a terminal server (that is, the Terminal Server role service is installed and configured on the server); and
- The "Allow asynchronous user Group Policy processing when logging on through Terminal Services" policy setting is enabled. This policy setting is located under Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative templates\System\Group Policy.
If this configuration isn't implemented on the server, this policy setting is ignored. In this case, Group Policy processing at user logon is synchronous (these servers wait for the network to be initialized during user logon).
- If you disable or don't configure this policy setting and users log on to a client computer or a server running Windows Server 2008 or later and that's configured as described earlier, the computer typically doesn't wait for the network to be fully initialized. In this case, users are logged-on with cached credentials. Group Policy is applied asynchronously in the background.
Note
-If you want to guarantee the application of Folder Redirection, Software Installation, or roaming user profile settings in just one logon, enable this policy setting to ensure that Windows waits for the network to be available before applying policy.
-If Folder Redirection policy will apply during the next logon, security policies will be applied asynchronously during the next update cycle, if network connectivity is available.
