What if I already deleted the ADM files?
Is there any way to get rid of these "extra registry settings"?

Thanks.

This week, I tried to follow the instructions to install the Office
Administrative Templates. I created a folder called "PollicyDefinitions"
under sysvol/(domain)/policies, and copied in the directories and files in
the download.

But I'm not seeing these show up in the policy manager. Furthermore, when I
open the GPO I created, in the Server Manager, for that GPO's "Settings" tab,
under Administrative Templates, there's now an "Extra Registry Settings" area
containing my former Administrative Templates settings, with the notation:

"Display names for some settings cannot be found. You might be able to
resolve this issue by updating the .ADM files used by Group Policy
Management."

But I thought we're supposed to use .admx files, not .adm files? And I'm not
sure how to do that, anyway.

Please may I have some help troubleshooting what I've done wrong?

You need to import/copy the ADM template files you used for policy
creation again. I guess they got deleted. The "Extra Registry Settings"
section gets displayed when there are registry settings defined the
Group Policy Editor cannot find a ADM template for.

cheers,

Florian
