Hi,
Thank you for your reply.
I tried your method but cannot find "%systemroot%\system32\grouppolicy"
and
gpt.ini file.
Please advise any other method to try.
Thank you again.

Hi
I'm running on W2k Pro, standalone PC, not connected to any network and
Server.
Based on my W2k Pro OS, please advise, can I still create a Group
Policy
with a higher priority in the Domain/OU or any other method to save the
default settings and the amended settings.

Not possible, in this scenario.

I never tested but you can test if it works...

1-What you can do is to backup the "%systemroot%\system32\grouppolicy"
folder.
2-Then make a few changes, reboot the computer and check if they're
working.
3-If yes then check the version number in
%systemroot%\system32\grouppolicy\gpt.ini
4-Then replace the files with the bacup that you made in the first step.
5-Increase the version number that you checked in step 3 on
%systemroot%\system32\grouppolicy\gpt.ini
6-Let me know if that worked.

Also, do Windows 2000 Default Group Policy Restore Tool support W2k
Pro?

Thank you very much.

Hi

Why don't you create a Group Policy with a higer priority in the
Domain/OU
?
If later you want to remove the settings all you have to do is to
delete
the
policy without messing with the originals.

To restore Default Policies in windows 2000 check:
Windows 2000 Default Group Policy Restore Tool

Thank you for your reply. Sorry, forget to state that I'm on W2k
Pro.
I
run
c:\winnt\system32\gpedit.msc to access the group policy. Any utility
to
save
or load the default and amended gpo?
Thank you again

Hi anyone,

I would like to set a group policy on the user configuration to
remove
the
Run menu from Start Menu and others.
Before I do that, I would like to save the default settings to
file
so
that,
in future, I can load the default settings back.
Please advise me how to do it.

Thank you in advance,
ksteo
