Problem End User

I have an end user who is able to access the control panel after setting local group policy to prohibit access and Only his user profile can access it. The domain Admin the local admin or other users are prevented from accessing the control panel until I change the policy back.

Anybody know how this could happen? I've ran antivirus, malware scanners and found no threats. So I don't think its that.

Ok as I said before the domain policy is over riding the local

The report shows just that

So now you need to check the domain level policy

Member_2_6492660_1

If you want that policy settings then you must enable it

Just remember that will effect all computers on the domain
