Okay, I started over. I'll explain step by step what I did.
Right clicked on Group Policy Objects in Group Policy Management > Back Up All
All GPOs successfully backed up
Copied the GPOs to a network folder and then to my device
Opened up Policy Analyzer > Add and then File > Add files from GPO(s)
Then clicked Import to save the .policyrules
Afterwards I selected that policy along with the MSFT baseline and clicked view/compare.
I'm still getting the exact same results

d_irving : I don't have an answer. But one thing I noticed from your original screenshot is that you seem to have two GPOs called "Default Domain Policy."
- d_irvingAug 09, 2022Copper ContributorNope, I've done this four different times now and have not made copies or imported it multiple times.

You might have imported multiple copies of the backups, or imported it multiple times.
- d_irvingAug 09, 2022Copper ContributorHuh, I'm not sure why it says that. I went and looked in the Group Policy Objects, there is only one Default Domain Policy. I appreciate your help.
