GROUP POLICY OBJECTGroup Policy is a set of rules that control the working environment of user accounts and computer accounts. Group Policy provides the centralized management and configuration of operating systems, applications, and users' settings in an Active Directory environment. Active Directory Manager Pro allows GPO management from a single web based console. The administrators no longer have to face the windows based tools limitations. Lock GPOActive Directory Manager Pro provides locking and unlocking of the GPO's. The locked GPO is not accessible until it is unlocked. This powerful feature allows administrators to temporarily lock GPO's.
