      So I'm doing some clean up on my GPOs.

      A very long time ago I unlinked the Default Domain Policy because the previous person messed it.

      I've removed most things from it, but I can't seem to remove the folder redirections, and there is a "extra" thing in there that the ADM used to create appears to be gone.

      I found the matching contents of this extra entry in a file called Registry.pol in the \domain.com\sysvol\policies{Default GUID}\USER directory.

      Can I just delete that file?

        I found this post

        https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/556025

        it talks about creating my own Default Domain Policy and changing the associated GUID, but I don't want to do that.

        I also found DCGPOFIX which claims to be able to reset the Default Domain Policy - but I'm concerned it will delete the rest of my GPOs.

        Anyone else dealt with any of this?

          Yeah I've done it before. It just resorts your default policy. It doesn't affect your other gpos
