Harm_Veenstra Thanks Harm. I did copy it in the SYSVOL folder and I have a User Preference GPO and it is not copying.
I also tried converting the REG file for EXCEL and OUTLOOK to XML file and copied it under REGISTRY settings in User Preferences and I see that it is not working. Should this be a User Policy or Computer Policy where we try to copy these files to users computers?

It's a user thing, so user policy IMHO. The user must have read permissions and the Scripts folder in sysvol should be accessible for them.

- oryxway390Jul 27, 2022Brass ContributorThanks Harm. I did copy it to the scripts folder both my Normal.dotm and Powerpoint.potm files and I have set it up to copy the files to these locations through GPO. But, it looks likes it is not copying. I do not see the new Normal.dotm file or Powerpoint.dotm file.
Anything I am missing?- Aug 01, 2022Do you have any update for us?

Can your users access the specified appdata path and write files there? And when running a rsop.msc on the client computer, does it show that the GPO is applied?
