Hopefully you created the software restriction in it's own policy... that
way you can do what I learned to do... just delete the entire policy...
Software Restriction has some additional challanges... It's a great idea on
paper, but in practical use it is weak in documentation and
implementation... I tried to create a secured environment where by I wanted
all software restricted except for the applications that I wanted the user
to have... I still have not gotten this to work... and It's not for lack of
trying... If you restirct all... this works fine... however try to get a
HASH to work on an application... I could not get the stinking HASH to work
on anything other than simple EXE's... Adobe Acrobat reader... forget it...
Microsoft Office... Make sure you get all the exe's or forget it... I was
unsuccessfull and getting any HASH to work whatsoever...
Still looking for that answer???

only applied to a specific group of users. Now that I'm done testing on
this particular group, I would like to remove this software restriction
policy and create a new one in a GPO that is applied to the entire OU.

policy to "Unrestricted", this particular GPO has a higher priority over the
one that is applied to the entire OU. We cannot reorder the policies
because our design is that all specific group-related GPOs override the
default OU GPO. So if I set it to "Unrestricted" as some have suggested,
this particular group will not have the OU-based software restriction policy
applied unless I can completely remove the Software restriction policy from
this group-based GPO.
