Hi All,

Need your support to understand the root cause of a GPO issue on windows server 2012. Recentlly one of my client face a issue that the WSUS Update was failed due to unknown host URL spesifyed In the GPO windows update location . After reset the record it will comes up automatically with in 10 Second. I have check All the domain GPO's and no such configuration found for "specify windows Update location " .

when I check through rsop.msc than I found the "specify windows update location GPO is set as a local GPO but rest of the settings are applied by the Domain policy's. Now I need to find the reason why this GPO enforced in all domain system by Local Policy . and also suggest how to fix this permanently.

> when I check through rsop.msc than I found the "specify windows update > location GPO is set as a local GPO but rest of the settings are applied   "Local GPO" means "gpedit.msc" on the local computer. This creates a registry.pol file in %windir%\grouppolicy\machine, and this file is applied afterwards.   To get rid of all local gpo settings, simply delete the folder %windir%\GroupPolicy.   How this local GPO was created? No idea - might be a leftover from an imaged system?  

Thanks Martin,

Can you please suggest me how can i remove the local GPO in All domain client. And of i create the policy in domain default and try to enforce than also its not get applied on the client system. Please suggest.
