B.2 Windows Group Policy

  • Do not apply the Windows Group policy to a Windows managed device that is a part of the Microsoft domain and has a group policy from the Windows domain controller applied. The Endpoint Management Windows Group policy must be applied only if the group policy from the Windows domain controller is not applied.

  • If you want the Windows Group policy settings to be applied to all users of a device, the settings must be configured as a part of a device-assigned policy. The user-assigned policies must contain only the configuration settings specific to the user to whom the policy is assigned.

  • If you apply Local Group policies on a managed device that has Endpoint Management Group policies already applied, some of the settings might not work correctly.

  • If you want to configure the security settings for a Endpoint Management Group Policy on a newly installed 64-bit Windows device, launch and close the Group Policy editor, gpedit.msc, before running the Group Policy Helper tool.
