bbford,
I can only assume that you should probably leave Group Policies alone. The Security Console does not apply any restrictions that can't be applied via GPEDIT (with the sole exception of preventing users from running the Console itself), and only does so on a per user basis. Unless you managed to lock yourself out of the Security Console, all changes are easily reversed. And of course, there is a feedback link, which it appears you never used.
