5. What settings are not updated during a Background Group Policy Refresh?
Most Group Policy extensions are processed during a background refresh, however two are not:
- Folder Redirection
- Software Installation Policies
Both of these extensions are only processed during computer start-up and user logon, application of these policies during a users logon session may produce undesired results. For example, should a Software Installation Policy apply whilst a user is logged on, it is possible that a user could be using an application that this policy will try to upgrade or uninstall. This is not great for the user should their application stop working while they’re still using it!
Some additional information on configuring Folder Redirection processing on Windows XP can be found on this page.
