[Christoffer Andersson] Yes you are right here. The ALWAYS INSTALL WITH ELEVATED PRIVILAGES needs to be set in both User Configuration Part and Computer Configuration Part to be come active. > > 2: If I check the BLOCK POLICY ENHERITANCE on the > properties of ClientsOU, does that mean that I won't get > ANY configuration from the DEFAULT DOMAIN POLICY settings? > Meaning, will I only get : > ENABLE USER CONTROL OVER INSTALLS set to (ENABLED) while > the rest remain set to (NOT CONFIGURED)?
