Importing Office ADM into Windows 2012 Server for GPO

Done that.  How do i see them in group policy?

Tried this too: http://www.deploymentshare.com/post/Deploying-Office-ADMX-Files-to-the-Central-Store 
Nothing in GPO

I would normally add/remove templates in GPO but that doesnt show the files available either.

okay so i have the admin and admx folders in there, i see nothing.

Apart from the old office 2003 and 2010 that i think we imported manually.

Did you paste the whole ADMX folder in?  The individual .admx files should be on the root.  And the     en-us folder inside of that, copy those files into the en-us folder on the root level too.

yes i have the admx and admin folders in there.

Not the folders, you want to move the individual files IN those folders to the C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions root folder.

Right so how to you know if the correct ones are there in the future or even manage the files?
Let me try it.

Still not showing...

So copied admx into \policydefinitions
copied adml into \policydefinitions\en-us

Still not showing..

Got it.  Had some in sysvol must have been conflicting with local.

I've attached screenshots.

1. No office templates.
2. Copied from the downloaded ADMX.
3. Pasted into the root.
4. Copied from en-us in the language files.
5. Pasted in en-us.
6. Re-open GPManager and the templates are now loaded.

This is on the domain controller that I am running GP management from.

Good, glad to hear it's loading.  I remember having to import the templates and when they switched to this new way it took some getting used to.  But now I like it much better.

Not sure i do.  Surely better if i could use folder name under policydefinitions e.g. O2k16x86 with admx files in.
Oh i also copied adml files under en-US.  Assume this is needed too?

Yes, that is needed (it's the nice pretty description in your language, otherwise it shows the template and just the associated registry key).

Have you got central store working by using \sysvol ?

Yes- it's also pretty straightforward (you just create the \policies\PolicyDefinitions\ folder and paste the contents of C:\Windows\PolicyDefintions to that new location)

There's a guide here.
