Hi Marco
my experience with this was to setup VPN then remote as admin (since end user profile doesn't know anything yet about your VPN) assuming you have remoting solution on end user's computer.
then apply gpupdate /force then switch user while VPN still connected and have user login and finally do gpupdatep /r to see if new gpos are applied

Hello,
I've done some testing with a virtual machine and also attaching my tablet to the company AD: after some restart and trial to apply the Group Policy, it seems that something was working using the VPN with my account (never used the domain admin in VPN); however, there are things that I don't understand so well so I can replicate the procedure at all; where I can find on doc.microsoft.com documentation about the Group Policy in Windows Server 2016: I tried to do a research but without luck.
