Summary

Group Policy Preferences (GPP) allow you to specify computer and user configuration settings. These settings allow granular configuration not available using regular Group Policy. GPP also provides filtering of settings using item-level targeting that allows for granular application of settings to a subset of users or computers.

You may want to know about the possible events that can be logged by a component, in order to categorize them properly in system management solutions. Below you will find the list of events for Group Policy Preferences.
