This tutorial will show you how to see which group policies have been configured (enabled and disabled) from the Local Group Policy Editor in Windows 10 and Windows 11.

The Local Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) is a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in that provides a single user interface through which all the the Computer Configuration and User Configuration settings of Local Group Policy objects can be managed.

The Local Group Policy Editor is only available in the Windows 10/11 Pro, Enterprise, and Education editions.

References:


You must be signed in as an administrator to see all configured group policies.
