Apply Group Policy template changes to client systems

Changes to Group Policy Templates do not immediately apply to systems, because they must first replicate to the domain controller. Also, client systems can take up to 90 minutes to refresh Group Policy Objects. For detailed information, see the Determining When Group Policy Changes are Applied article at www.docs.microsoft.com.

Administrators can manually force updates to take effect immediately:

  1. On the client system, open the command window.
  2. Enter the following command. 
    GPUpdate /force
  3. Press Enter.
In Windows Server 2012, administrators can also force client updates from the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC). For detailed information, see the Force a Remote Group Policy Refresh article at www.docs.microsoft.com.
