Proxy details keep deleting from field in Group Policy Preferences for IE 10 on windows 7 and 8

We have a lot of users who on the last update and have seemed to manage to install IE 10 onto their windows 7 machines as now causing all sorts of issues. I know that IEM has been replaced in favour of Group Policy Preferences and I have build a windows
8 machine just to create a group policy preference as you are unable to create the preferences from windows 7, thank you Microsoft!
I have created a test OU and got a win 7 and a win 8 machine both with IE 10 for testing. I have created the preference settings, home page etc and disabled using the F keys the advanced features that we do not require as from reading in other post even
if it is not ticked, if it is green then it will apply it, kinda defeats the using the tick but it is what it is!
When we do a gpupdate it picks up the default homepage as well as other settings but the proxy settings is blank. I then went back into the preferences I created for IE 10 and checked the connections, LAN settings and the proxy server name is missing but
both ticks are showing for the proxy settings and when you click on advanced it shows the proxy server and port details fine. I have been working on this now for 4 days and getting no where to a point were we just roll back any users on IE 10 back to IE 9.
I have also unlinked any other gpo relating to Internet settings on the test OU just in case there are conflicts. Any ideas as where to go from here?

In the end to get around the proxy settings I had to create a registry key preference with proxy and port details which seemed to have done the trick and now IE 10 is picking up the proxy details and displaying webpages

  • Group policy preference for creating printers setting the wrong printer as default

    Hi
    We have a a group policy preference applied to users.  At the moment we create a shared printer and set it as default for all users in a specific OU.  Now we need to add another shared printer.  I have updated the policy and set it to create
    the new shared printer and have set item level targeting to the same OU as the first printer.  I want to keep the existing printer as the default, however when the policy runs, the new printer is created fine but it is set as the default
    printer.  Is this because it has been added last ?  There doesn't seem to be a way of changing the order that the printers are applied.
    Both printers are Shared printers and are set to Create
    The existing printer (printer A) is set as the default printer.  It is targeted at the London OU.
    The new printer (printer B) has NOT been set as default.  It is targeted at the London OU.
    No other options have been set.
    When the policy is applied both printers are added but printer B is being set as the default.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi G,
    >>however when the policy runs, the new printer is created fine but it is set as the default printer.  Is this because it has been added last ?  There doesn't seem to be a way of changing the order that the printers are applied.
    Before going further, what's the operating systems of our clients? Here, I need to double confirm that the checkbox of
    Set this printer as the default printer... is not selected in the new GPP Printer item. Besides, we can change the orders of the printer items. To do this, select the printer item, right click, click All Tasks, and choose Move Up or Move
    Down to change the order.

  • Group policy Preferences server 2008 and windows 7

    Hi I have been struggling with an issue with group policy preferences for a while now with regard to pushing out printers to windows 7 (32/64 bit) Machines. I have two DC servers one is 2008 and the other is 2008 r2. I have setup the group policies on the
    2008 server as it is the only one i am allowed to access regularly to do this.
    Basically here is my problem. I have created multiple GPO's to send out printers from out print server to classrooms across the school district I work for, I have a mix of xp and windows 7 machines. I have the server setup with both 32 and 64bit drivers
    for all printers on that server, we have a mix of oki and hp and ricoh. I know all the connections work and the drivers work well, however when I push them out using the group policy, the windows 7 machines don't install the printers. The xp machines do this
    perfectly well when I install the client side extensions patch, but they just will not pull down on the 7 machines unless i install the printer first manually, then delete it and then run gpupdate. In that instance it will work, but obviously i don't want
    to have to go round thousands of computers doing this manually.
    Just as a side note, each classroom has its own user account and its own printer.
    If anyone has any advice as to how i can go about resolving this issue i would greatly appreciate it, this has been a problem i have been researching and trying to fix since January.......

    Hi,
    >>The xp machines do this perfectly well when I install the client side extensions patch, but they just will not pull down on the 7 machines unless i install the
    printer first manually, then delete it and then run gpupdate.
    Before going further, we can run command
    gpresult/h gpreport.html with admin privileges to collect group policy result on the troubled Windows 7 clients to check the issue. Besides, we can also check event logs in Event Viewer to see if some related error events were logged.
    Besides, I want to confirm if we have disabled
    Point and Print Restrictions under both User Configuration and Computer Configuration. To have a consistent experience, it’s recommended that we disable the policy setting in both locations if we are dealing with mixed-level clients.
    Regarding this point, the following article can be referred to for more information.
    Point and Print Restrictions policies are ignored in Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2, and later Windows operating systems

  • Concurrent request got deleted from a request group

    Hi,
    Somehow a concurrent request got deleted from a request group. Is there any way so that we can determine the person from whose login it happened.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    You can try using PSA if that request it's still there.
    Otherwise, you will need to regenerate that request in source system (by filling setup tables with parameters) and update BW with a full load.
    Hope this helps.

  • 2008R2 IE 11 Group Policy Preference Proxy Configuration Issues

    I've been mulling this problem over for a while and I finally have to accept I can't use IE Maintenance anymore for managing proxy settings.  I've been reading up on how to make Server 2008 R2 work with GPP settings for IE 9 - 11.  Everything I've
    read says I need to install the .admx files (link below) or install IE 10+ to get the IE Preferences to show up for 9, 10, and 11.  But when I look at my .admx files in %systemroot%/PolicyDefinitions it has the same exact .admx file that I download
    from the Admin Templates.  I can not see the policy preferences for IE 9, 10, or 11 and need these options so I can configure a Proxy server.  How do I go about getting these preferences to become available in Server 2008 R2 SP 1? 
    #admx link
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36991
    Note that I also tried the following to manually add support while testing but it didn't help me:
    Open up the policy, and create an IE8 Preference: User Configuration --> Preferences --> Control Panel Settings --> Internet Settings --> New --> Internet Explorer 8 -> Set your proxy settings
    Navigate to C:\Windows\SYSVOL\domain\Policies was an easier route, then sort by date for the recently created IE entry.
    Navigate to User\Preferences\InternetSettings
    Open up the "InternetSettings.xml file, and change the MAX value to something above 10.0.0.0 (I usually put 10.5.0.0). This way, the policy won't trip up later on if IE 11 comes out and doesn't support any of these policies, but at least you'll be safe
    until 10.5.0, or until a hotfix is available. "
    max="10.5.0.0"

    > - Win 7 clients mysteriously show a configuration for IE 5 when I turned

    Although seemingly surprising, that's ok - Win7 GPP doesn't know that
    IE10 GPP exists at all, so it defaults to whatever the programmer made
    the default.

    That I cannot confirm - here it displays exactly what is configured.
    > - The home page option will not set on any version of windows.
    Cannot confirm, too - that is what I tried with the IE10 GPP for Win7,
    and it works. You know about the red/green lines and the F5...F8 thing?

    Definitely - sorry - wrong. The Server (DC) doesn't know about the
    contents of GPP, these are simple XML files the GP Editor writes to sysvol.
    In fact, most CSEs store their settings in files on sysvol, and the DC
    doesn't care about the contents of these. SOME of them (Wifi, eg) on the
    other hand require AD objects, and this objects sometimes require a
    specific schema version. But even in this case, the DC OS doesn't matter
    - schema updates can be installed on downlevel OS versions, too.

  • Group Policy Preferences Printer Delete Behavior

    I just had a maddening time trying to get Group Policy Preferences to delete printers.  I'm sharing what I found out so that you might have a better experience.
    1. Even though the field is grayed out, if you have something in the "Local Name" field, the printer will only be deleted if the name matches what you have here.
    2. If the "Local Name" field is empty, one printer with a matching IP address will be deleted.  If there are multiple printers with the same IP address, the policy will delete them one by one each time a refresh occurs unless you've got the "Apply
    Once" option active.
    The client I tested with was Windows 7 with version 6.1.7601.22249 of group policy preferences installed.

    After more testing, it turns out that all of my observations were correct:
    1. Even though the field is grayed out, if you have something in the "Local Name" field, the printer will only be deleted if the name matches what you have here.
    2. If the "Local Name" field is empty, one printer with a matching IP address will be deleted.  If there are multiple printers with the same IP address, the policy will delete them one by one each time a refresh occurs unless you've got the "Apply Once"
    option active.
    3. If the "Local Name" field is empty, a warning '0x80070709 The printer name is invalid.' will be logged in the  Application log.  If a printer exists, it will still be deleted.  If the "Apply once and do not reapply" option is checked, the
    warning will still be logged every time group policy refreshes.  This warning can be prevented by configuring "Configure Printers preference logging and tracing" to only log errors, but then you potentially miss out on warnings about actual problems.

    I do not understand what appears to be a regular expression above. I did add the PowerShell script to the HKCU RunOnce Key as suggested.

     I'm delivering this using Group Policy Preferences. It seems to fail or time out when run because the behavior is different if I run the script from within the PowerShell IDE. I added the parameters to the script and will try it again in the morning.

  • Unable to make changes to LAN Settings in IE after Group Policy Preference is applied

    Hi all,
    I have an IE10 group policy preference on a Server 2008 R2 domain that is pushed out to Windows 7 SP1 x64 clients. This IE10 GPP is used to push out proxy settings etc. The GPP is applied fine, however when I go into LAN Settings in IE and make any
    changes such as unchecking "Use a proxy server..." these changes are not saved. As soon as I click OK and go back into LAN Settings it reverts back to the GPP settings. Are IE10 GPP's meant to allow a user to amend settings in IE? The users have
    permissions to write to the Connections key under Internet Settings in the registry. If I delete the Connections key (Which includes DefaultConnectionSettings and SavedLegacySettings) I can then make changes to the proxy (Although without the original settings).
    I know their are other, and better, methods of controlling proxy settings for users but unfortunately this is the way the customer has it implemented. All defaults for GP is applied such as refresh rate etc. I've tested IE10 on a Server 2012 R2 / Win8 environment
    with the exact same GPP settings and I can make changes to the LAN Settings. Is this possibly a bug? Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    So by now we could make it work by deleting the Connections key, in order to change the proxy settings of IE 10-Windows 7 in the Windows Server 2008 R2 environment?
    Besides, could it be convenient for us to perform some more tests here? How IE 10 of Windows 7 behaves in Server 2012 R2 environment? And Windows 8 in Server 2008 R2?

  • Does using Group Policy Preferences to deploy printers require the print driver to be pre-installed?

    I'm trying to prepare our school system for Windows 7 (we currently use XP).  I would like to use the new Group Policy Preferences method of deploying printers.  I pushed out the XP client side extensions through WSUS.  In my test environment, I added the shared printer in group policy preferences.  My XP machine had the printers show up automatically, but my Windows 7 machine did not.  I realized that I had previously connected a printer of the same type to my XP machine before and the drivers were already installed.  To test this theory, I manually connected the shared printers to the Windows 7 machine, deleted them, then logged off and back on.  Now the printers are showing up from group policy.  My question is does using group policy preferences to deploy printers require the print driver to be pre-installed?  If not, then what am I doing wrong?  If so, is there a way to work around this?  Thanks for your help.
    EDIT:  To clarify, I am using the share method in GPP.  This is the error message I get in the event log:
    The user 'PRINTERNAME' preference item in the 'win7 printer test {946461A1-27F8-406F-A0B3-0A1A05AF34F6}' Group Policy object did not apply because it failed with error code '0x80070bcb The specified printer driver was not found on the system and needs to be downloaded.' This error was suppressed.

    This link have a description of resolution:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725938.aspx
    Open the GPMC.
    Open the GPO where the printer connections are deployed, and navigate to Computer Configuration, Policies, Administrative Templates, Control
    Panel, and thenPrinters.
    Note
    The Point and Print Restrictions setting can also be found under User Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Control Panel\Printers.
    This policy is ignored by Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, but is enforced by earlier editions of Windows including Windows XP with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, and Windows Server 2008. We recommend that you change
    this policy setting in both locations so that all down-level clients have a consistent experience.
    Right-click Point and Print Restrictions, and then click Properties.
    Click Enabled.
    Clear the following check boxes:
    Users can only point and print to these servers 
    Users can only point and print to machines in their forest 
    In the When installing drivers for a new connection box, select Do not show warning or elevation prompt.
    Scroll down, and in the When updating drivers for an existing connection box, select Show warning only.

  • Group Policy "Restricted Groups" (local groups) using group policy preferences

    I was recently tasked a solution with creating a group policy to manage RDP user access to a set of Active Directory computer objects.
    Part of the  solution was to create a policy so that this would only apply a specific security group(users) to a specific set of Active Directory computer objects within the OU to which it was applied so that other machines
    and/or user accounts in this OU remain un affected by this policy.
    The policy was to be able to include multiple sets of Security groups(users) for the associated machines isolating those security groups(users) to only their sets of Active Directory computer objects.
     Reduce the requirement to create multiple group policies to apply different "Local Group"/"Restricted groups" management for computer objects in the domain.
    I thouhgt about using System based policies and creating different WMI filters to target sets of AD Computer objects, but came to the conclusion this would not help due to the limited of WMI quries I would be able to create for a standard
    Image.
    So I then thought about group policy preferences and came up with the solution
    I created a new Group policy and created a new item for the local group, in this instance but not limited to "Remote Desktop users (built-in)" and added the security group(users).  In my case I did not need to use the "delete
    all member users" or "delete all member groups" as I wanted other groups in this local group for the computer objects to remain intact.
    Then what I did is set the "item-level-target" setting from "the common tab" on the GPP and set it to the security group which containd the AD computer objects the user accounts required access to.  I then did a couple of standard
    tests to confirm the local security group(users) appeared only on the machine in the item level target security group and applied to no other machines in the outside of SOM. 
    So with this in place, if I needed to create any other entries for different groups and access to specific machines all I need to do is create a new GPP item within this policy.
    Being mindful that system policies settings if applied to same OU will take preceedence over GPP settings.... 
    Thought I would just share this in-case anyone else has had similar requests/thoughts and or has other methods that they have used that they would like to share. 
    I am not sure either on the limit of entries that GPP have either so if anyone does know please post and possible links? 
    I have struggled to find an answer, however it could be that I am not asking the right question!

    good sharing...

  • Group Policy Preferences Shortcut issues ( event ID 1085 )

    I am hoping someone will be able to help me with a problem that is causing our users a headache
    We have a Windows 2008 SP2 terminal server farm ( 1 gateway, 2 Terminal servers TS1 and TS2 ), we also use Group Policy Preferences to deliver app shortcuts to different AD user groups.
    TS1 and TS2 were built from the same image.  On TS1 users logon and get all the icons they are entitled to, on TS2 it is random to whether they get their shortcuts or not.   
    Both TS are rebooted daily and I have scripted removing any local profiles incase it was something left behind.
    Checking the event Logs on TS2 I see several errors that appear to relate to Group Policy and correspond to when users have connected in.

  • Group Policy Preferences IE9 settings inconsistently applying on Windows 7 Clients

    We have two Windows 2008 R2 Domain Controllers.
    We have only Windows 7 SP1 clients.
    We have a mix of IE 9, 10 ,11 on the clients.
    We moved to using GPP to control IE Proxy settings some considerable time ago.
    We recently needed add a site the the proxy exceptions list. This appeared to work. However we discovered that for IE 10+ the setting was not effective. So we spun up a Windows 8.1 VM with RSAT and added a new IE Settings object into GP targeting IE
    11. This appeared to have the desired effect.
    After a while some  (and it appears only some) IE9 machines, found their proxy settings reverting. This could be resolved by closing IE down and issuing a gpupdate /force command. However the issue would re-occur for these users, and they would be required
    to close their browser and re-issue update /force again.
    Furthermore (this may or may not be linked) we have been seeing JavaScript disabled warnings from OWA from some machines running IE11.
    Any thoughts on troubleshooting this would be appreciated.

    Would you please let me know if the issue only occurred on all Windows 7 with IE 9 installed machines? Or
    only some Windows 7 with IE 9 installed machines have this issue?
    The issue is affecting about 20-25% of machines. Generally after a logon they are fine, but then after a background gp refresh they pick up 'old' settings for the bypass proxy list.
    Would you please let me know how did you configure the GPP settings?
    We opened up an existing GPO that contained our previous Internet Explorer GPP settings on our first domain controller (which appears to have IE11 installed) made the changes to the existing
    GPP IE Settings.
    We then noticed that the settings hadn't taken on IE11 machines, so we used a windows 8.1 RTM VM with RSAT installed to add an additional "Internet Explorer 8: Internet Explorer 11" only
    set of preferences. The IE8/9/10 preferences had priority of 1 the IE 11 preferences a priority of 2
     I think the original GPP settings were created from a Windows 7 machine with IE9 and the Enterprise Hotfix Rollup installed.
    Did you configure it in one GPO and applied to all machines?
    Yes.
    Have you tried to just configure it separately on Windows 2008 R2 DC and applied it to these Windows 7 with IE 9 installed machines?
    Not yet. We currently have a some LOB activities that require one of the sites in the proxy bypass list. I do not want to risk breaking that until later on this week.
    How to enable Group Policy Preferences support for IE9
    http://www.grouppolicy.biz/2011/03/how-to-enable-group-policy-preferences-support-for-ie9/
    We have the enterprise hotfix rollup installed on the Clients. However
    it appears it is not installed on the DCs. 
    Further examination of the output of a gpresult /h shows that legacy settings from the IE Maintenance object within the GPO match the settings we see applying from time to time. Is that possible? How can we remove the IE Maintenence settings from the
    GPO to test?
