    Cannot block removeable storage access


    I'm having no success blocking access to removable storage for one of our domain's AD security groups.


    The setting for our Default Domain Policy is left unconfigured--that is, User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Removable Storage Access: All Removable Storage classes: Deny all access I've created a separate gpo Deny Removeable Access that sets that option toEnabled, and under the Scope tab, I've removed Authenticated Users underSecurity Filtering and added in the corresponding AD security group.


    But I log onto a laptop on our domain, with a user account in the appropriate AD group, and still have access to USB drives. I've restarted the computer several times, runninggpupdate /force as an admin logged in as the domain admin and running CMD as an admin, and even connecting hardline instead of just wireless to our network. I logged on as the test account and used gpresult /vto make sure that security group is listed for it.


    Not sure where I'm going wrong. From what I understand, if I alter the GPO to be under Computer Configuration and not User, it would do it for all computers, regardless of who's logged on--and that's not what I want. I want a particular security group's members to be blocked no matter what domain computer they're on. Any suggestions?

    :)

    Having trouble with removing a Blocked URL. I try to access youtube.com, but a pop up message that say.

    www.youtube.com is blocked
    The person who set up this computer has chosen to block this site.

    • Try contacting the system admin.

    Check your administrator's policies
    Visit chrome://policy to see the list of blacklisted URLs and other policies enforced by your system administrator.
