Workstation Management.Situation
Cannot
launch GPEDIT.EXE via ConsoleOne (User Policy Package>[Windows
Version]>Windows Group Policies> Properties>Edit Policies)
on some workstations.
Users on other workstations can successfully 'Edit Policies' for Windows Group Policies in ConsoleOne.
MMC.EXE and GPEDIT.EXE (MMC>Console>Add/Remove Snap-in>Add>select Group Policy>Add>Finish>Close>OK) will launch on the workstation outside ConsoleOne on the workstations getting the'...currently being edited by another user...' error.
Resolution
Delete the
[Windows Directory]\SYSTEM32\gpInUse folder if it exists.
Additional Information
Check to see if
there is the following directory on your workstation where you're
running ConsoleOne:
[Windows Directory]\SYSTEM32\gpInUse
This folder
is created whilst a Group Policy is being edited by ZENworks. The
folder should be deleted automatically when the editing session
finishes, but if the session did not terminate normally (system
crash, etc.) then the folder may be left behind. ZENworks will then
believe that a Group Policy is still being edited.
