Any other important ones you think should be in a video? Let me know in comments.
Yep - If one's Windows 10 is heading for the toaster - Go to Security/Recovery and Advanced Startup. There will be options, Try System Restore first. I screwed up my different account settings big time not long ago. Lucky I remembered this as I was about to pack FRED off to a skilled tech and who knows bill would have been. There are other ways also but now forget. I believe every Windows user should know these tips. 👍 as usual
Hi, would making a point (I don't know its name but makng them allowsusers to go back to where they were beforemakingchanges) work if policy changes are made, please. I look forward to your reply, Thanks and Regards JB
I have used gpedit for years, but it is so easy to get carried away with so many customizations and settings. This was one tool I used to eliminate Edge. I was afraid of creating a quagmire to which I couldn't keep track of. As a tip, I suggest backing up your registry first. A tough subject to understand. Thanx Mate 🤔👍
Totally agree!
@@Britec09 Brian, show the people how to use the filter feature to show which policies have been set.
I like videos like these.
Been recently tinkering with Group Policy Editor to tweak how windows security looks (hiding the family options and account protection because I don't use those) and how it functions (turning off routine remediation)
Glad you enjoy the content
I looked at this video again, now that I have the 23H2 Windows 11 pro, to understand how GP works. Good video. Thumbs up to you, Brian.
You can also have it on Windows Home if you install Group poilicy editor through a bat file.
Brian I noticed "DCOM: Machine Access restrictions in Security Descriptor" under Security Options. What is this? Thanks
Thank you for making a video on Group Policy Settings. I would like to see policies related to the home user, specifically the policies that an user should set when they initially install Widows 11. I am especially interested with settings in regards to security and settings that will optimize the performance of the computerl..
Group Policy comes from Windows NT (forgot which version, maybe 4.0 in 1996) which was the first Windows version where a computer could join, and be controlled by, a domain.
Different policies can be rolled out to different machines and different users by the domain. That's why it has a Computer Configuration and User Configuration section. For a home machine, or any machine not in a domain, the interpretation is that "machine" applies to the machine state or behavior, and "user" applies to privileges of the users. Other than that confusion, Group Policy is fully functional and very useful on a home machine with a Pro Windows edition.
Thanks A Lot 🎉🎉 You are a Time Saver 🎉🎉
Interesting stuff. How might one use the group policy editor in conjunction with multiple different user groups?
Good Information, I've always been afraid of group policy as I don't completely understand it, But now you have made it completely simple and easy. The registry Scares me a little too but you have plenty of videos on that too. I like these sort of behind the OS content that most people aren't aware of, Hopefully Microsoft leaves my control panel alone but wishful thinking lol . Thanks as always
Thanks
Hi, if you take these actions is there a bypass for the owner/administrator to use these features regardless of prevention of others. Eg: the flash drive disablement does it also bar the owner/administrator from using eg an external hard drive while barring others please? Thanks and Regards for this exciting information JB
How do you do these group policy changes so they only apply to standard user accounts? I want my admin account to have full access to everything. At the moment all my policy changes are being applied to every account
This question also have? How can we do on specific OU?
Great video. How would you recommend keeping track of all the Group Policy settings you make. I think as a just in case something goes wrong and you need to troubleshoot the issue. Or send it to someone else for troubleshooting. Thanks
Great information, kindly make videos regularly on various concepts and technical troubleshooting scenarios for Windows Server, Active Directory, Domain Controllers as it will be very very helpful
I like all of your videos.
Thanks
Thanks for this. I recently started messing about with Group Policy to further tweak windows, esp stuff that's hidden from the end user in 11. I have a feeling it'll be important in the next few years to keep the new features MS insists on adding disabled. Lol.
Also, it's just kinda fun. I'm a part time sysadmin and enjoy this kinda stuff
Group policy is so powerful, especially if you know what each settings do.
Yeah, super powerful
@@Britec09 hi can local group policy editor cfg lock disable and unlock the locked cpu pleas reply me asap would mean a lot to me

Great content. 👍👍👌
Nice Vid💯
U just broke my pc haha clean install happening right now😅😅😅
I’m going to save this for later as I have recently accessed GP edit and made changes to settings that I need, but by the time I need to access it the next time, I will have forgotten everything, so I will refer to this video.
Enjoy
excellent. value your content, thank you.
Good info as always
Thanks 👍
Great Video!!
Thanks!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
hello there. all policy in the video are working except for preventing new application installation is not working. i can still install new application
Hi, Can you help me bring back the icons and enable right clicking on my desktop? Thanks a lot in advance.
@Britec09
I can see how these would be helpful if you have a lot of people with access to your computer, but what features would be useful for a single user PC that has no other access problems?
You could disable auto updates so Windows doesn't start downloading every update without you knowing, then nagging for a reboot. That's why I got started in GP anyways. For single acc machines where browsing the web and primarily local activities not requiring internet, I see no reason to get every update they put out.
I loved the Group Policy Editor in Windows 10, but after getting Windows 11 Home version, I found that it wasn't included. I need it and miss it.
comes in handy, you can upgrade for $15
is there something similar for windows 10 home
Home don't have it
@@Britec09 i know but is there a software like it for windows 10 home
@@franciscohorna5542 Well Francisco, there are hacks to enable Group Policy Editor in Home versions, but I can no longer recommend them. In newer versions of Windows 10 and, I think, all versions of Windows 11, setting group policy in a hacked Home version may not actually have effect, or revert at a later time.
Your best options are to use the Registry, or upgrade to Pro. I recommend the latter. I used Brian's promo code at CDKeySales to buy a Windows 11 Pro key. A few minutes later, I was in business.
How do you disable Microsoft Edge in GP?
Nice one Brian but mate your screenshots and text are ever so slightly blurred making viewing hard even in full screen view..
Must be your system, looks sharp my end, maybe up resolution on TH-cam video
@@Britec09 Well i have looked at the resolution for the video and it is at optimum for this laptop. It seems to be that the video is blurred for the first three to four minutes and then clears to be easily readable??
I recommend you do stuff like this through the MMC group policy snap-in. That way, you can filter your group policy object(s) down to a single user account, preventing you from locking yourself out of your system as many people have so foolishly done.
This would be done on a domain level
@@Britec09 Non-domain systems can do it too. I know, I've done it.
Nice man, your video is cool. Why don't you try system administration? Is it pretty cool to know😅
I am already qualified system administration and much more
@@Britec09 I knew, I mean share more knowledge or tips and tricks for it
GPEdit more like Becoming GOD of your own computer, editing THINGS ABOUT THE NATURE OF WINDOWS ITSELF
My system is fine BUT can anyone remember how to reset the group policy editor to default in case you accidentally make a hash of things? I recall there is a way to reset GPE with command prompt but cannot remember the command?
As a Windows 10 home user it makes me and I am sure other Windows 10 or 11 home users would agree makes us feel left out here not helpful ........ Unless us users upgrade to pro or higher.... But good video though 😀
You can use registry
Blocking these things also blocks me from using it. So what's the point?
Active directories and group policy is the only thing that makes windows great.
Windows has other quality's
@@Britec09 other qualities, yes, things that make it great compared to macOS? I’m not so sure. I am an IT professional and work with all platforms so…
Except for the group policy says it only works for windows 2008 and below....
I've never really looked into group policy on Windows, probably because I never edit anything within it.
Thanks for watching
Your welcome! I always watch your videos as soon as they come out. You make great content on this channel. 👍
Cool!
Thanks
I'd like to see a video explaining
Cookies on websites and if there is a way to reject all on every one on them. Plenty of people out there just accepting them.
I see what I can do
Many people click the accept button because it's easiest to find.
@@TwoThousandStu exactly. Some don't have a reject all.
