Hi,
I'm unable to edit the default domain policy from my new Windows 8 desktop. It's the only Win8 in the environment so I'm not able to easily test another one unfortunately. The error I receive is:
Group Policy Error
Failed to open the Group Policy Object. You might not have the appropriate rights.
Details: The volume for a file has been externally altered so that the opened file is no longer valid.
I have checked from a Win7 and a 2003 machine and can access and edit the GPO without issue using the same account. The Win8 desktop is a fresh install with the RSAT tools installed, Exchange 2010 tools and a few basic applicaitons (non of which stick out as having anything to do with AD management).
It only occurs if I click edit on the GPO. I'm able to successfully view the policy and edit the permissions etc. Have rebooted and the machine is current with patches as of now.
thanks
Andy
