How to Restore Settings if You Accidentally Modify the GPO Permissions and Give Deny Access to Enterprise Admin and Domain Administrators


 

Accidentally modified The GPO permission and give deny access to Enterprise admin and domain administrators:

:In my test Environment I simulated the same.

I gave Full deny access to Authenticated users in default domain controller policy.


 

It can be corrected it by  Start Active Directory users and computers(Dsa.msc). Choose View and select advanced features. browse to system \ policies. Select the guid starting with  6AC1 (that the default domain controller policy), open properties and select the security tab. click on advanced. There on the top of the list you should see the Deny permission for Administrator . Double click the entry and remove the "deny" permission.



The Policy looks like above in aduc console.Right click and Select Properties and then select Security to change the ACL:


Look at that. It's coming back:


Then I browse to Sysvol (the path will be like this: \\domain.com\SYSVOL\Domain.com\Policies).


In the security tab of policy, starting with  6AC1, I removed deny permission for the Administrator.

The policy is okay now.
