in Windows 10 or Windows 11 GPO ADMX - Which One To Use For Your Central Store? on Sep 29 2022 10:19 AM
I see that Windows 11 22H2 ADMX templates have been available for some time.Is this issue solved with the Windows 11 22H2 templates or is the same incompatibility issue going to happen again when the Windows 10 22H2 ADMX templates are released?
