Given that all those versions are the same I’m wondering if you’re also seeing
an error indicating that there’s an AD / SYSVOL version mismatch. If so you
may be missing an update.

Subject: RE: [NTSysADM] Group Policy question
The settings themselves are not being applied. The last time group policy was
processed: 1/25/2017 8:26:02 AM (from summary page)
Under Applied GPOs, the policy in question is listed as applied. The odd thing
is this:
[cid:[email protected]]
I’m wondering what the Revisions are off. If I look at the GPO itself, on the
Details tab, it shows the same revision in AD and sysvol. On the specific
policy I’m looking at (CDFW Proxy Policy), there are no WMI filters. It’s
linked to 2 OUs, not in a direct path of each other, and it is applied to
Authenticated Users. The above is for a user, on their machine. If I run the
same report for me on my machine, I do have the settings applied, the settings
do appear in the report, and the revision info is as above.
This is not a new policy. It was created 9/1/2015, and it is used to set the
proxy settings in IE. It has been working well since it was created, but in
the past couple of days, I’ve heard of a couple of users that it is no longer
working for.

Is it only that the reporting is wrong, or does the user also not get the
settings applied?
When you run the Results Wizard from GPMC on the Summary tab are there any
errors and does it show a recent time stamp for the last user policy refresh?
On the Details tab under User Details > Applied GPOs, if you show the details
for the GPO in question does everything look right? Are there any Security
Filters or WMI Filters that might affect the user? (Possibly certain
permissions like Allow Read but not Apply GP might cause this, but I’m not
certain.)

OK. I’ve done the Group Policy Results wizard for the user in question on
their PC, and for myself on my PC. I have the policy applied correctly, the
user does not. The Group Policy Results wizard shows the policy in question is
applied, but the settings don’t show up in the report.

It worked correctly for me when I tried to reproduce the problem. Try the Group
Policy Results Wizard in the GPMC for the same user to see if you get different
results. The HTML output is better there anyway.

Subject: [NTSysADM] Group Policy question
What would cause gpresult /USER jsmith /R to show a specific group policy as
being applied, but if you do a gpresult /USER jsmith /H c:\test.html, the
report does not show any of the settings of that policy?
