Inheriting policy settings from parent group

If you apply a Policy X (example: Tamper Protection policy enabled) to Group A, does Group A1 and all computers contained in Group A1, which is a subgroup under Group A, also apply Policy X?

  • Hello lordjohn,

    this has been discussed several times in this forum. The short answer is: no.

    While a newly created group inherits the parent's policies it is from then on independent. Thus if group A uses the Default policy and you create subgroup A1 it will also use Default. If you later apply Policy X to group A, A1 will still use Default. Similarly if you have group A and subgroup A1 using Policy X and group B using Policy Y and you move A1 under B it will keep Policy X.
