If you’re in the habit of changing Local Group Policy settings, you might find it useful to see all the changes you’ve made in one place, rather than digging through the Local Group Policy Editor. We’ve featured a number of tricks here in the past that use Local Group Policy to change settings that you can’t change anywhere else-except by editing the Windows Registry.
Local Group Policy is a slightly more limited version that applies settings only to a local computer or users-or even a group of local users. Those settings then get applied whenever a user in the group logs in to a networked PC or whenever a PC in the group is started.
In the Windows world, Group Policy provides a way for network administrators to assign specific settings to groups of users or computers.
