Remove Group Policies

Summary: How to temporary remove group policies from your Windows pc.
Date: Around 2020
Refactor: 1 March 2025: Checked links and formatting.

In case group policies are bothering you and you are an administrator on your local PC you could temporarily remove them:

  1. Go to C:\Windows\System32
  2. Remove the folder ~GroupPolicies
  3. Wait a minute
  4. Open a command prompt
  5. Issue the command:
    1. gpupdate /force

The group policies are now gone for a while, just until the domain policy will put them back in place.

An unforeseen error has occured. This is most likely a bug somewhere. It might be a problem in the gitbacked plugin.
