Azure VMs Not Applying GPOs Correctly

Hi everyone,

Quick question… if my Azure VMs are joined to my domain, they should be applying all my configured GPOs, right?

For some reason, my VMs are not applying the GPOs, even after running a GPUPDATE /force. At the moment, I am testing some simple GPOs like:

• Creating a folder on the desktop
• Setting the time format to Brazilian (dd/mm/yyyy)
• Adjusting the timezone to Brasília

When I run gpresult /r, it shows that the GPOs are being applied, but for some reason, the VM just doesn’t reflect them.

Any idea what might be causing this?
