The Group Policy Preferences options are blank when accessed from two PCs (both running Vista SP2). For example, I go to edit/create a GPO and then expand the Preferences menu, then either Windows Settings or Control Panel Settings. When I select a variable beneath either, no options are presented on the right hand side of the screen, it just says 'There are not items to show in this view'.
Unfortunately, are domain controllers are still running Server 2003, which does not offer the ability to work with GPPs - so I can't log on to those in an attempt to duplicate the problem.
What could be causing this and how can I fix it?
Is this what you are seeing?
There are no items to show in this view because you have not added any yet. Right-click in the empty area to create a new item.
