Windows 10: Group Policy Applied to users with Admin Rights?

Hello. If I create a group policy to restrict access to a single app or to restrict access to Control Panel, is that policy applied to all USERS including those with Admin rights? I assume that the administrator type account used to create the policy is NOT restricted. Or does the user required to use the Local Administrator account of the pc? This is a Local PC network, not a domain network. Also, using all Local User Accounts, no Microsoft accounts.

Group Policy User Configurations not applying on Windows 10 - 1809

Having an odd issue. Upgrading a network to Windows 10 1809 from Windows 7 with brand new Group Policy Objects ready to go. I have one box already running Win10 1809 and Computer Configurations come down fine but User configurations, whether baked into
the main GPO or in a separate GPO, just do not want to apply.

Both "Authenticated Users" and "Domain Computers" are added in security filtering with Read access and no WMI filters applied. The other odd thing is that locally on the Win10 box both Event Viewer and GPResult say both Computer and User configs applied successfully
with no hint of any errors. I'm part of an Admin group on the domain and also added to the local admins.

Any thoughts on getting user configs to work? Rebooted countless times and even deleted the Group Policy folder under Regedit (HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group Policy) and rebooted/ran gpupdate to no avail.
