Group Policy Problems AGAIN

[talksr]

Hi there,

Getting so fed up with the constant Group Policy errors I keep getting.

 

We have a server 2012 with Windows 10 clients.

We updated the admx templates in our central store and now get constant policy errors.

 

If anyone can help me with the following, I would be grateful.

 

When I open the settings on some of our existing policies, I see the following:

 

An error has occurred while collecting data for Administrative Templates.

The following errors were encountered:

Resource '$(string.Win7Only)' referenced in attribute displayName could not be found. File \\servername.domain.internal\SysVol\domain.local\Policies\PoliciyDefinitions\SearchOCR.admx, line 12, column 69.

 

 

Can anyone help. Can't believe this is STILL an issue and Microsoft are not addressing it.

ADMX file permissions?

 

Might also be worth copying the templates directly to the policy location(s)

 

..\sysvol\sysvol\domain.name\policy location

Thanks, just re-downloaded again for about the fourth time. Is 1803 still the most up to date version?

I have put on, error seems to have gone for now, but I notice that under User Config>Administrative Templates> I am only seeing Microsoft Excel 2013, Word 2013 etc. How do I get the Office 2016 folders here?

If you're using the 1803 templates, SearchOCR.admx is malformed. Use an older version (like the 1511 file) or have a look at https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/cb97affb-9724-457b-a113-32cbd3d53331/searchocradmx-error-after-installing-win101803-admx-templates?forum=winserverGP

You need to put the Office 2016 ADMXs and ADMLs in. These don't come with the OS ones, and need to be downloaded separately.
