<string id="DisableLGPOProcessing">Turn off Local Group Policy objects processing</string>
<string id="DisableLGPOProcessing_Help">This policy setting prevents Local Group Policy objects (Local GPOs) from being applied.
By default, the policy settings in Local GPOs are applied before any domain-based GPO policy settings. These policy settings can apply to both users and the local computer. You can disable the processing and application of all Local GPOs to ensure that only domain-based GPOs are applied.
If you enable this policy setting, the system will not process and apply any Local GPOs.
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Local GPOs will continue to be applied.
Note: For computers joined to a domain, it is strongly recommended that you only configure this policy setting in domain-based GPOs. This setting will be ignored on computers that are joined to a workgroup.
<string id="SyncWaitTime_Help">This policy setting specifies how long Group Policy should wait for network availability notifications during startup policy processing. If the startup policy processing is synchronous, the computer is blocked until the network is available or the default wait time is reached. If the startup policy processing is asynchronous, the computer is not blocked and policy processing will occur in the background. In either case, configuring this policy setting overrides any system-computed wait times.
If you enable this policy setting, Group Policy will use this administratively configured maximum wait time and override any default or system-computed wait time.
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Group Policy will use the default wait time of 30 seconds on computers running Windows Vista operating system.

<string id="AllowX-ForestPolicy-and-RUP">Allow Cross-Forest User Policy and Roaming User Profiles</string>
<string id="AllowX-ForestPolicy-and-RUP_Help">Allows user-based policy processing, roaming user profiles, and user object logon scripts for interactive logons across forests.
This setting affects all user accounts that interactively log on to a computer in a different forest when a trust across forests or a two-way forest trust exists.
When this setting is not configured:
- No user-based policy settings are applied from the user's forest
- Users do not receive their roaming profiles; they receive a local profile on the computer from the local forest. A warning message appears to the user, and an event log message (1529) is posted.
- Loopback Group Policy processing is applied, using the Group Policy objects (GPOs) that are scoped to the computer.
- An event log message (1109) is posted, stating that loopback was invoked in Replace mode.
When this setting is enabled, the behavior is exactly the same as in Windows 2000: user policy is applied, and a roaming user profile is allowed from the trusted forest.
When this setting is disabled, the behavior is the same as if it is not configured.</string>

<string id="GPTransferRate_Help">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.
To use this setting, in the "Connection speed" box, type a decimal number between 0 and 4,294,967,200, 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 500 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.
Also, see the "Do not detect slow network connections" and related policies in Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\User Profile.

<string id="GroupPolicyRefreshRate">Group Policy refresh interval for computers</string>
<string id="GroupPolicyRefreshRate_Help">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.
You can specify an update rate from 0 to 64,800 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 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. To set an update rate for user policies, use the "Group Policy refresh interval for users" setting (located in User Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Group Policy).
This setting is only used when the "Turn off background refresh of Group Policy" setting is not enabled.
Note: 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.</string>

<string id="OnlyUseLocalAdminFiles">Always use local ADM files for Group Policy Object Editor</string>
<string id="OnlyUseLocalAdminFiles_Help">Always use local ADM files for the Group Policy snap-in.
By default, when you edit a Group Policy object (GPO) using the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in, the ADM files are loaded from that GPO into the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in. This enables you to use the same version of the ADM files that were used to create the GPO while editing this GPO.
This leads to the following behavior:
- If you originally created the GPO with, for example, an English system, the GPO contains English ADM files.
- If you later edit the GPO from a different-language system, you get the English ADM files as they were in the GPO.
You can change this behavior by using this setting.
If you enable this setting, the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in always uses local ADM files in your %windir%\inf directory when editing GPOs.
This leads to the following behavior:
- If you had originally created the GPO with an English system, and then you edit the GPO with a Japanese system, the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in uses the local Japanese ADM files, and you see the text in Japanese under Administrative Templates.
If you disable or do not configure this setting, the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in always loads all ADM files from the actual GPO.

<string id="UserPolicyMode_Help">Applies alternate user settings when a user logs on to a computer affected by this setting.
This setting directs the system to apply the set of Group Policy objects for the computer to any user who logs on to a computer affected by this setting. It is intended for special-use computers, such as those in public places, laboratories, and classrooms, where you must modify the user setting based on the computer that is being used.
By default, the user's Group Policy objects determine which user settings apply. If this setting is enabled, then, when a user logs on to this computer, the computer's Group Policy objects determine which set of Group Policy objects applies.
To use this setting, select one of the following modes from the Mode box:
-- "Replace" indicates that the user settings defined in the computer's Group Policy objects replace the user settings normally applied to the user.
-- "Merge" indicates that the user settings defined in the computer's Group Policy objects and the user settings normally applied to the user are combined. If the settings conflict, the user settings in the computer's Group Policy objects take precedence over the user's normal settings.
If you disable this setting or do not configure it, the user's Group Policy objects determines which user settings apply.
