Help with S/W uninstall question

[eric hela]

Hi,

If someone uninstalled an application which has been assigned by GP policy
in the Computer configurations, Will it automatically install again when the
machine reboots or at some stage? I was thinking along this line but it
doesn't seem to be working.

Thanks
Eric

No, not unless you modify the policy so that its' version number changes.

Thanks Jerold, that confirms what is happening on my test machines. The
next issue have is, if I do a change on the policy, it will reinstall the
s/w on all the machines affected by this policy and not necessarily the
uninstalled machines. Could there any work around?

thanks once again
