    Group Policy Editor not working after Vers 2004 updates.


    Hi All.

    Would appreciate knowing if any others have been affected after running the two most recent updates for Win 10 2004.

    I did a clean install of Win 10 Vers 2004. After which Group Editor Policy worked fine and was accessible. However after applying updates KB4557957 or KB4567523 my Group Policy Editor reports the following error on trying to open it. Please see attached image.

    "An appropriate resource file could not be found for file C:\Windows\Policy Definitions\appv.admx (error=2) The system cannot find file specified"

    This has affected all my machines and an uninstall of the update does not resolve the issue.

    Would like to know if others have experienced a similar issue and if anyone might know what the problem is and if their is a way that I could resolve it would be appreciated.

    Many thanks Dave

    Hi Tony,

    Group Policy Editor in Windows is a tool to help you manage policy settings. Here's how you can access the Local Group Policy Editor:

    • Press Win+R to open Run.
    • Type gpedit.msc, and then click OK.

    Let us know how else we can help.

    Group Policy editor warning

    This notice appears each time the Group Policy editor is opened, and takes two clicks on OK to close.
    Simple steps to banish it?

    Checked out this article, but was unable to rename the two files mentioned. I did delete them, however, and this removed the error message. What damage that did is ... to be discovered. ^_^ Files are in RECYCLE bin.
