I want to ask if group policy processing is asynchronous by default in Windows 7 or not and if now, how can I set it to be asynchronous? I agree with others that it is not recommended to change group policy default processing behavior from synchronous to asychronous because it can cause unpredictable or undesirable side effects.
For your reference, here is an article about slow logon troubleshooting: So you have a slow logon…? GPs are in sync default. Your logon time depends on lots of factors. Office Office Exchange Server.
Not an IT pro? Resources for IT Professionals. Sign in. Configuring this setting within the policy that contains the user settings will not have the desired effect unless the user's computer is also in the container that is linked to the GPO or unless a different policy that applies to the user enables this setting. To configure Synchronous Foreground Processing of group policies, perform the following steps: Log on to a designated Windows Server R2 administrative server.
Expand the domain to expose the Group Policy Objects container and select it. Right-click the Group Policy Objects container and select New or select an existing policy to update.
Beneath the Administrative Templates node, expand System, and select Logon in the tree pane. This stops the current Group Policy processing. Group Policy will run in the background the next time a connection to a domain controller is established. Setting this value too high might result in longer waits for the user at boot or logon. When Group Policy runs synchronously, it downloads the latest version of the policy from the network and uses bandwidth estimates to determine slow link thresholds.
This policy setting allows you to configure Group Policy caching behavior on Windows Server machines. If you enable this policy setting, Group Policy caches policy information after every background processing session. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, the Group Policy client will not cache applicable GPOs or settings that are contained within the GPOs.
This policy allows IT admins to turn off the ability to Link a Phone with a PC to continue reading, emailing and other tasks that requires linking between Phone and PC. If you enable this policy setting, the Windows device will be able to enroll in Phone-PC linking functionality and participate in Continue on PC experiences. If you disable this policy setting, the Windows device is not allowed to be linked to Phones, will remove itself from the device list of any linked Phones, and cannot participate in Continue on PC experiences.
A Group Policy administration. Preferences, which are not fully supported, use registry entries in other subkeys. If you enable this policy setting, the "Show Policies Only" command is turned on, and administrators cannot turn it off. As a result, Group Policy Object Editor displays only true settings; preferences do not appear. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, the "Show Policies Only" command is turned on by default, but administrators can view preferences by turning off the "Show Policies Only" command.
In Group Policy Object Editor, preferences have a red icon to distinguish them from true settings, which have a blue icon. This security feature provides a global setting to prevent programs from loading untrusted fonts. This feature can be configured to be in 3 modes: On, Off, and Audit. By default, it is Off and no fonts are blocked. If you aren't quite ready to deploy this feature into your organization, you can run it in Audit mode to see if blocking untrusted fonts causes any usability or compatibility issues.
This policy setting determines which domain controller the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in uses. If you disable this setting or do not configure it, the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in uses the domain controller designated as the PDC Operations Master for the domain. This policy setting defines a slow connection for purposes of applying and updating Group Policy. If the rate at which data is transferred from the domain controller providing a policy update to the computers in this group is slower than the rate specified by this setting, the system considers the connection to be slow.
The system's response to a slow policy connection varies among policies. The program implementing the policy can specify the response to a slow link. Also, the policy processing settings in this folder lets you override the programs' specified responses to slow links. If you enable this setting, you can, in the "Connection speed" box, type a decimal number between 0 and 4,,,, indicating a transfer rate in kilobits per second. Any connection slower than this rate is considered to be slow. If you type 0, all connections are considered to be fast.
If you disable this setting or do not configure it, the system uses the default value of kilobits per second. This setting appears in the Computer Configuration and User Configuration folders. The setting in Computer Configuration defines a slow link for policies in the Computer Configuration folder.
The setting in User Configuration defines a slow link for settings in the User Configuration folder. If the profile server has IP connectivity, the connection speed setting is used. This policy setting specifies how often Group Policy for computers is updated while the computer is in use in the background.
This setting specifies a background update rate only for Group Policies in the Computer Configuration folder. In addition to background updates, Group Policy for the computer is always updated when the system starts. By default, computer Group Policy is updated in the background every 90 minutes, with a random offset of 0 to 30 minutes. If you enable this setting, you can specify an update rate from 0 to 64, minutes 45 days.
If you select 0 minutes, the computer tries to update Group Policy every 7 seconds. However, because updates might interfere with users' work and increase network traffic, very short update intervals are not appropriate for most installations. If you disable this setting, Group Policy is updated every 90 minutes the default.
To specify that Group Policy should never be updated while the computer is in use, select the "Turn off background refresh of Group Policy" policy. The Set Group Policy refresh interval for computers policy also lets you specify how much the actual update interval varies. To prevent clients with the same update interval from requesting updates simultaneously, the system varies the update interval for each client by a random number of minutes.
The number you type in the random time box sets the upper limit for the range of variance. For example, if you type 30 minutes, the system selects a variance of 0 to 30 minutes. Typing a large number establishes a broad range and makes it less likely that client requests overlap. However, updates might be delayed significantly.
This setting establishes the update rate for computer Group Policy. This setting is only used when the "Turn off background refresh of Group Policy" setting is not enabled. Consider notifying users that their policy is updated periodically so that they recognize the signs of a policy update. When Group Policy is updated, the Windows desktop is refreshed; it flickers briefly and closes open menus. Also, restrictions imposed by Group Policies, such as those that limit the programs users can run, might interfere with tasks in progress.
This policy setting specifies how often Group Policy is updated on domain controllers while they are running in the background. The updates specified by this setting occur in addition to updates performed when the system starts. If you select 0 minutes, the domain controller tries to update Group Policy every 7 seconds. If you disable or do not configure this setting, the domain controller updates Group Policy every 5 minutes the default.
To specify that Group Policies for users should never be updated while the computer is in use, select the "Turn off background refresh of Group Policy" setting. This setting also lets you specify how much the actual update interval varies. To prevent domain controllers with the same update interval from requesting updates simultaneously, the system varies the update interval for each controller by a random number of minutes.
Typing a large number establishes a broad range and makes it less likely that update requests overlap. This setting is used only when you are establishing policy for a domain, site, organizational unit OU , or customized group.
If you are establishing policy for a local computer only, the system ignores this setting. This policy setting specifies how often Group Policy for users is updated while the computer is in use in the background.
This setting specifies a background update rate only for the Group Policies in the User Configuration folder. By default, user Group Policy is updated in the background every 90 minutes, with a random offset of 0 to 30 minutes. If you select 0 minutes, the computer tries to update user Group Policy every 7 seconds.
If you disable this setting, user Group Policy is updated every 90 minutes the default. To specify that Group Policy for users should never be updated while the computer is in use, select the "Turn off background refresh of Group Policy" setting. If the "Turn off background refresh of Group Policy" setting is enabled, this setting is ignored. This setting establishes the update rate for user Group Policies.
Also, restrictions imposed by Group Policies, such as those that limit the programs a user can run, might interfere with tasks in progress.
