Hi,<br />
<br />
ADM = ADMinistrative Template that contain language-specific settings for Windows 2003 Server.<br />
ADMX = ADMX files are XML-based ADM files that contain language-specific settings for Windows Server 2008.<br />
<br />
So ADM comes from Administrative.<br />
<br />

It's microsofts extension for Admin templates that go int group policies.<br />
<br />
That's where it came from.<br />
<br />
As I said in my first post they are the extensions for Group Policy Templates.<br />
ADM are pre Windows 2008/Vista and ADMX are Windows 2008 and Vista onwards.<br />
<br />
The ADMX can be read by Older versions of the OS if they have the client side extensions installed.
