I am working on a project to build solution with one server 2012 R2 device an 4 Windows 8.1 PCs. The Server runs AD and the clients have been added to a domain.<br />
<br />
I have then applied some security focused group policies. That is all working fine.<br />
<br />
I now have a 5th PC, also running Windows 8.1 that is not part of the domain. In fact it isn't even connected to a network.<br />
<br />
However for compliance reasons I do still need to apply the same &nbsp;policies to this PC.<br />
<br />
How can I manually apply the domain group policy settings to a workgroup PC without going through each setting manually?
