The ADM templates also dictate the exact Registry path, value, and data that each setting alters. Although the files are few in total, they take up quite a bit of space. Each GPO is broken up into two parts and each part is stored in a different location on the domain controllers.
The main role of ths part of the GPO is to keep all of the links, locations, and paths of the different aspects of the GPO in tact.
The GPC does not contain any of the settings or templates. Not only does the GPT store the settings in a wide variety of files, it also keeps a copy of the ADM templates there, as shown in Figure 3. Thus, if you have a multitude of ADM templates, the total space that can be taken up by them can be substantial.
In addition to taken up so much space, these ADM templates also need to be replicated to all domain controllers. These issues can cause significant problems with the overall management of Group Policy. Not only can it cause problems with replication and storage, but you can see that versions of the ADM templates can become updated quickly, and potentially with malice intent. If a rogue administrator were to update the local ADM template with an alteration to the Registry value and data being updated.
There are only a few steps that need to be performed to create the central repository. I should note that the central repository is not just on one machine, but is on every machine that will perform administration of GPOs. The editing of a GPO will now also negate the version checking of the ADM templates in both locations, only relying on the local version.
As an option, you can also help secure the ADM templates by using a new policy setting that is available in PolicyMaker. This setting allows you to perform a file deletion, then file copy. I would think that all that those files are are pointers to registry locations, etc.
Just wanted to be sure as I'm wanting to do some testing. I don't believe so since uses the older. ADM files which are a different format.
I could be wrong though. I'd not even bother looking at Windows 10 on you network until you are off an EOL server environment. Both somewhat - actually one server is r2 now, the other is still pending being replaced. So the new. To continue this discussion, please ask a new question.

Please don't hurt me for being on a domain! Best Answer. Pure Capsaicin. DragonsRule This person is a verified professional. To begin with no action is required, Windows Server automatically loads 5 built-in templates.
When you launch this tool it analyzes a users effective NTFS permissions for a specific file or folder, takes into account network share access, then displays the results in a nifty desktop dashboard!
Think of all the frustration that this free utility saves when you are troubleshooting authorization problems for users access to a resource. On no account rename these templates. If you do rename the above original Group Policy templates, then when you apply a service pack your policies will be deleted and replaced by default the above defaults. Be aware that there are two sets of Administrative Templates, one for Computers and another for Users. Should there be a conflict of settings, then the Computer Configuration wins.
The logic being, by the time the user logs on, too late, the Computer Configuration has already run.
