Group Policy Modeling Report

This report displays the resultant set of policies based on the selected simulation options within the modeling session. You can use this report to simulate changes and validate that the results match the desired outcome before actually implementing any changes within your environment. Using this report, you can evaluate checked out GPO working copies so that you can mitigate any unexpected effects once the changes are made to the live version.

* 
IMPORTANT: An application partition is created during the simulation to house the report. It contains a temporary staging container that is deleted once the report has been generated.

If necessary, you can create or delete the staging application directory partition:
