Windows 10: gpresult /R /scope:computer gets access denied

I have looked all over for a solution to this and so far nothing. When I run gpresult /R /scope:computer it returns access denied. Has anyone ever seen this before?

GPResult in Windows 10

What you are missing is that although you are an admin user and UAC is turned off, you don't have built-in admin rights needed to check other than user level policies with GPRESULT.

To check the computer level (/scope computer) you have to use an elevated PowerShell or Command Prompt, whichever you prefer.

Not sure if this is the right subforum, I guess it could also go in networking, but anyway...

I'm trying to test my company's Group Policy Objects. I'm used to using the command "gpresult /h gpo.html" but what I've noticed is that in Windows 10, that only shows the "user" scope, not "computer"

If I have a GPO that only has computer-level settings, it doesn't show up in that report at all - it's as if it doesn't exist!

I tried "gpresult /scope computer /h gpo.html" and got "Access denied". I'm in the Administrators group and UAC prompts are turned off, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

Am I missing something here?
