All about Group Policy and Windows 10

Posted by

Several questions about Windows 10 and group policy have been raised and I gather the resources I use for this information.

First you need to download the Group Policy Settings reference guide. This Excel spreadsheet have all the information you want about settings available in Windows 10

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=25250 and the file you want to download is Windows 10 ADMX spreadsheet.xlsx

Second thing you need to download is the new ADMX templates

Install this MSI on your computer and in the folder %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Group Policy\Windows 10\PolicyDefinitions

you find the ADMX/ADML files you need

Third thing you need is to deploy the ADMX files in your domain according to this KB

[Update 2015-09-07] Thanks for the reminder, I forget to reference Windows 10 ADK and MDT, and here it is!
