Won't that change only address the user who is currently
logged on -- namely me as administrator? Obviously, I
can't get to registry unless I'm logged on as that.
Student user has no rights to registry.
I'm suspicious that this inability to receive the policy
is buried in my default user profile and I don't know how
to weed it out.
