Is there any way to reset all Group Policies to the default settings on a
stand alone W2K Pro or XP Pro?

Thanks

Best regards

Reapply default security settings
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/library/ServerHelp/dd766d48-ed09-45a3-aa5e-cf0a64a7fb88.mspx

or in CMD:
secedit /configure /db %temp%\temp.mdb /cfg “%systemroot%\inf\defltwk.inf

Registry Settings made by gpedit.msc insode the administrative
template can only be deleted if they are full managed. If you
have inttegrated selfmade adm templates, then you have to reset
them manually.
Full managed policys can be deleted by deleting die *.pol
files inside %systemroot%\system32\GroupPolicy\Machine
and %systemroot%\system32\GroupPolicy\User

Nope. A template is only a pattern/stencil. It is only a GUI
that enables you to make settings, but is has nothing to do
with the effektiv settings inside the *.pol file, where the
changes are done.

If you change the template, 2 things can happen:
If you update a temlate (eg from XP to XPSP2), all settings can still
be done, there are a lot or more settings to be possible. The
Template is cumulative and like a "superset" of policies.

If you import an older tmeplate, or a manually reduced one, you
will not be able to "see" all of your settings, but they
are still there.
