Enable/Disable Local Group Policy Objects


In a non-networked environment (or in a networked environment that does not have a domain controller), the local Group Policy object's settings are more important, because they are not overwritten by other
Group Policy objects. You can open the Group Policy snap-in to edit the local Group Policy object that is stored on your local computer.
 Click Group Policy to open the local Group Policy object. This tweak allows
you to disable Local Group Policy Objects.
