One short test you should have done with this... restart the computer. :) Especially if you have to log in after boot.

This! A lot of GPO entries are for the computer, not the user. And for a lot of them, a restart is needed
Your videos are very interesting! Keep up good work!
A lot of those setting have not much with personal computers, because it's a lot with active directory. If this is done in a corporate environment, it is very bad. 😅
after long time this is a crazy fun work from Thio 😊😊
Congratulations Joe I was just watching Linus and I'm very proud of you just one guy that did something the largest tech company couldn't do
Would be cool to actually teach us which of those GPs would be useful to enable/disable as a normal user. Like disabling bloatware features, Cortana, etc.
I would expect that changing these settings with a PowerShell script should be easier. It might also allow to enable settings witch have a "not" in their description.

Thio, I think it's time to make your content a bit more spicy: A soft background music that trademarks you, (examples are like Vsauce or Veritasium's) and an intro of your liking that is also memorable to your viewers (LinusTechTips if you're into animated intros). Believe me when I say this will improve your total watchtime with these small cues that helps to entertain people while watching your content.
Didn't expect such a video from you today
I came for the title, you had me at your automation
There is a way on Active Directory when you right click a Group Policy Object ( GPO )
Nice video. Nice thinking
No memory/perf changes after disabling all that? Were some of the services shut down? Was the UI snappier?
Goodbye Theo , i switched to Linux mint today , it was a pleasure learning from you.

Automation works only in formatted text (or something like json/yaml) and stdin/out. GUI is the worst possible option for automation of tasks which you can automate with shell/console.

Does setting a GP back to not configured always reset the associated registry value?

Need to be an admin to enable this. Even via command line, which he was running as an admin in the video. It says - Administrator: command prompt
could you do the same thing but with a iOS configuration profile
dose it give you more fps in gaming??
I saw several entries for "Account Unknown" in the Registry when clicking on Permissions so I started to delete them - that soon crashed my PC and when rebooting into Windows none of the options would work. I had to go into Recovery and find a System Restore date to get back a working machine!
So if you were able to easily copy the grouppolicy folders from your backup. Then the setting to lock group policy from being accessed is useless

Thanks, Ive done this to my school laptop
Many of the settings are actually a negative ("prevent", "turn off") so they actually had to be enabled to take effect. This would be more difficult with so many settings though.

I wanted to secure my elderly mothers pc from scammers who call. With edits in group policy could a scammer direct her to system32 to delete those 2 directories and undo my edits and con her into allowing them access to her pc AGAIN ? I have her set now as a standard user but wanted extra protection via group policy I just tried it and as a standard user you cannot delete those directories so She should be good. Awesome work on this video. This led me to subscribe
I've been watching your channel for couple weeks now and you are definitely a Genius 🙏💯👌 And a handsome one as well!! Ok! Here's my question. I have an Acer Aspire 15. I ONLY use it to burn cds. (I know, 🙄 how ancient) 😄😄 But it kept asking to update to windows 10 so i did. Ever since then (2 months now) windows media player not responding, or some files cannot burn, 😨😱 So i reset everything but kept files! Still having the same problem. Burning cds BUT out of 40 songs only 3 burned onto cd. Most songs have black dot in front of song. Any suggestions 😭😭😭?
Great day
You should try doing what tech-support scammers say needs to be done and enable _all_ services whether they're relevant or not (including the print-spooler service even if you don't have a printer, etc.) Gee, I wonder what will happen. 🙄

@@terasestHammasratas I believe that was limited to just the start menu, taskbar, and desktop. You could right click but nothing would happen. I'm actually pretty sure this isn't something that can be done through the group policy editor, you have to do it via the registry editor and assign it to the entire domain.

When you sayed what you will do and how my immidiate guess was - you are too optimistic about it being possible to just change it back on because you will probably not be able to open gpedit or something :D ... its good you had that backup or it would be probably kinda gross to return back to normal :)
You should try enabling everything.
A lot of schools that use Windows do this for their student accounts. i.e windows 10 education licence, then editing the group policy editor so students would have more restrictions.
Some settings you have to enable then in the drop down disable
I disable edge in group policy and it corrupted my ssd. Had to reinstall windows and wipe the boot drive.
I also disabled many running services now my ram consumption is only 800-900mb. I m happy.
Linus tech tips shouted out your program!!!!!
ive wondered this
Weird, but interesting. Thanks!
Not configured to disabled Now from disabled to enable pls
You should also backup the Windows Registry because most settings are making changes there.
Excellent geek exercise. I will never do it. Thanks.
You should try and see what happens when you delete all the file directories in windows using the command prompt. Use the command (Del)
You should try enabling all the settings ad see the result

Maybe you could try to disable all Windows Services, however I would actually do that on a VM.
What if you enable all of those settings?
Try seeing if it affects the SYSTEM account
Now what happens when you shut down all proceses with task manager
