SCM 3.0 - Why does Exporting to GPO Backup and Importing back the same LocalGPO alter the settings so drastically ?

What I did:
Specialize a Win 7 computer Baseline (Baseline A)
Export the duplicated baseline to the GPO Backup Folder.
Use this the exported GPO Backup within a MDT task Sequence
Create a new computer with this task Sequence. It completes successfully.
Export with LOCALGPO Tool the Baseline (BaseLine B
Compare to the Windows 7 SP1 Baseline copy - (Baseline B).
Result (see pictures):
    Total unique settings compared: 317
    Total settings in common: 205
    Total settings not in common: 112
Settings that differ (15): Just one exemple:
I ask for "Audit System events" Success and Failure (Baseline A) and the result is NoAuditing. Strange isn't it?
Settings that match (190): Cool.
Settings only in  Baseline A (57) Just a comment:
There are a lot of settings with the value: No one. Are these values correctly exported and correctly positioned on the new computer?
Settings only in baseline B (55) Just a comment:
There are a lot of characters badly recognized. I think there is a problem with French Language.
How can I trust SCM with so many errors? What can I do to correct these errors?
I use Security Compliance Manager 3.0.60.0 with settingLibrary Version 2.0.82001

After reading  social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/720f6515-47fc-4805-8ccb-dc144cb72078/action?threadDisplayName=gpo-backups-import-merge-export-problems I think I've identified that some of the differences come from the Not Defined/Not Configured
settings not being backed up in the GPO Backup.  I can live with that.
The other issues are attributed to flaws within SCM 3 regarding GPO Imports...hopefully they'll be sorted out by the team soon.

  • Why does apple only make 32 and 64 gb ipod 5's? The price went up, so i cant afford a new one

    Why?

    Apple, like a lot of companies, does market analysis to determine what the buyers want.  Products are then manufactured to satisfy the largest majority of customers...they have to make economic decisions about the numbers of products based on predicted sales.  So, the larger storage devices are what their market decisions said should be provided.

    This issue is associated with your graphics driver not being compatible with PS' hardware acceleration. Updating the driver if possible would be advisable, otherwise turn off OpenGL drawing under Preferences --> Performance.

  • Why Does 3D Reposse cause crashes and work so slow?

    Why Does 3D Reposse cause crashes and work so slow?   I get the pinwheel of death when I use this feature.  It works at a snails pace.  I liked the 3D Type effects in iIllustrator.  Why couldn't Adobe have added all the Reposse features to Illustrator instead of craming all these new features into Photoshop?
    They're worthless if the program needs an hour to process every selection.

    What are your OS specs, your Video Card and your Preferences > Performance settings?
    Why Does 3D Reposse cause crashes and work so slow?
    My guess would be because it has to create a whole bunch of polygons and your computer-set-up may be insufficient for the task.

  • Why does exporting to jpeg or png come out blurry in Illustrator CC?

    Hello,
    I am dying to export a poster ( size 27 x 41 in) from Illustrator CC into a jpeg. The image comes out blurry and text is fuzzy and not legible.
    300 dpi, anti-aliasing optimized. Why does this happen?
    The pngs won't even save, it takes hours and shuts down?
    How can I export this crisp and clear in a format that client can use to print it form Staples or other center?
    Kind,

    Hi There
    I am experiencing the same issue. The jpg / png files which are exported from Illustrator CC turns out bad... and I did not want huge files (example 72dpi for web images) Can @Adobe @AdobeCare please provide assistance? I am using the Retina Mac Book Pro laptop.
    Appreciate.

  • Why does my my noise reduced picture go back to noisy when i go from develop to library to export it?

    after editing my photo and specifically using noise reduction i will go from develop to library so that i can export it but when i do the oise reduction disappears. any ideas?

    It could be just a lag in the updating of the thumbnail shown in the Library. Wait a few seconds and see if it updates.
    Since what you see in the Library is just a thumbnail, the data being exported comes from elsewhere and is recalculated each time you do the export.

    How can I, or can I export my songs on my iPod back to my computer?
    The songs on my iPod Video 5th Gen now, were at one time on my computer, but have since been erased. Why can't I export the songs from my iPod back on to my computer? I have this same problem with my other devices (iPad 3rd Gen and iPod Nano 6th Gen). I am really frustrated now, because it seems as if I have to start all over again. This will be a royal pain in the butt! I don't understand why Apple makes this so hard and impossible to do this. Please help, anybody!!

  • What, exactly, are 'encoded assets'? Why does removing them resolve problems? How can they be avoided in the first place?

    What, exactly, are 'encoded assets'? Why does removing them resolve problems? How can they be avoided in the first place?

    As I understand it, encoding fomats your digital video clips and photos (assets) into Standard DVD mp2 format so that it can be burned to a DVD.  If there has been an error in the encoding process, then you remove the old encoded assets and start over.  There are numberous reasons why there can be errors in the encoding process. 

  • When importing RAW files in Photoshop why does camera raw 8.6 only import 1 size?

    When importing RAW files in Photoshop why does camera raw 8.6 only import 1 size from canon 5d mark iii, in older versions I used to be able to import the files as larger images. It use to have a number of options for the images size. The option now is smaller than the maximum size used to be.

    You know what - I'm sorry
    I'd had a crazy long all-nighter session sorting out images for a client, then decided - when I should have simply gone to bed - to set up the new photoshop. At the very start I made a silly mistake, tried to sort it out then decided to call it a day, responding to your remarks with the problem still in my head but feeling more and more tired.
    Responded again to your comment earlier with the problem still in my head but not in front of me on the screen - however with a fresh head I just turned it all on, opened up PS and today could instantly see what was going on - Oops!
    Thank you for being patient with a sleep deprived photographer who must have been getting annoying yesterday
    I am officially embarrassed

  • Why does my screen turn blue and freeze every time i try to plug in my 'mini display to hdmi' cable into my thunderbolt port in order to use an external monitor?

    why does my screen turn blue and freeze every time i try to plug in my 'mini display to hdmi' cable into my thunderbolt port in order to use an external monitor? it only works if i turn the computer on with it already plugged in.

    Do you have gfxCardStatus installed?  Is your monitor set to "Integrated" or "Discrete".  You want it set to Discrete to drive the external HDMI display.
    Try resetting the PRAM and SMC
    <About NVRAM and PRAM>
    <Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)>
    Are you sure you have a good miniDisplayPort to HDMI cable?
    Do you have another HDMI display you can test against (your neighbor's HDMI capable TV).
    Do you have friend that can test the cable using their Mac and maybe their TV or a monitor that has HDMI input.

  • Why does a standalone program created in Labview 8.5 try connecting to the internet when the program only reads data through the serial port? Firewalls object to progams that contact the internet without permission.

    why does a standalone program created in Labview 8.5 try connecting to the internet when the program only reads data through the serial port? Firewalls object to progams that contact the internet without permission.
    The created program is not performing a command I have written when it tries to connect to the internet, it must be Labview that is doing it. How do I stop this from happening? 
    Any help would be very appreciated.

    It looks that way..
    "When LabVIEW starts it contacts the service
    locator to removes all services for itself. This request is triggering
    the firewall.This is done in case there were services that were not
    unregistered the last time LabVIEW executed- for example from VIs that
    didn't clean up after themselves"
    This is not yet fixed in LV2009.
